A new tender joins an existing superyacht
Leisure Boat Guide reports this wider marine industry development for small-boat owners, operators and suppliers. Equipment, berthing and operating conditions may differ substantially from those of larger yachts. An Evene Origin 57 has been delivered and handed over to the 109-metre Benetti motor yacht IJE, according to the tender builder's September release. The handover was completed by the Evene Superyacht Tender Centre, Mike Marine, based in Biot near Antibes, with the builder sharing footage of the process from delivery truck to the yacht's garage.
This is a specific tender delivery to an identified mothership rather than a new launch of IJE. It also gives a practical glimpse of the logistics between a supplier and a large operating yacht.
A compact craft with its own design role
The Origin 57 is presented by Evene as a 5.70-metre luxury tender for yachts typically measuring 30 metres or more. The published provisional specification includes a 2.25-metre beam, seating for nine, a 100-litre fuel tank and a 195hp Yanmar diesel engine.
Its stated maximum speed is 40mph, while its low-profile arrangement is intended to make garage storage easier. The precise specification of the example handed to IJE has not been separately disclosed, so the generic model figures should not be treated as a final as-built inventory.
Materials and onboard usability
Evene describes cork decking, removable upholstery, and a Petestep hull intended to balance comfort and efficiency in its Origin Series. The company's options include boarding arrangements, a folding helm, navigation electronics and tender-specific lifting equipment, all of which need to suit the host yacht's operational requirements.
A tender installation is more than a sales transaction, because weight distribution, garage clearance and crew handling all affect everyday use. The delivery footage is therefore relevant to captains and builders assessing practical tender support.
A documented handover near Antibes
Mike Marine's delivery gives the south of France service network a role in the equipment's final journey to its owner. The builder's official release and exact image document the handover without using a substitute photograph of an unrelated vessel.
IJE remains a separate existing yacht in the Leisure Boat Guide fleet database. The new news story concerns the Origin 57 tender and links the identified mothership for readers seeking its broader record. Readers of Leisure Boat Guide should verify vessel-specific applicability with the original supplier or organiser. No size, capacity or access claim is transferred automatically to a boat under 12 metres.
