Twisted Scorpion 34T: Offshore Performance Meets Luxury

The Twisted Scorpion 34T blends serious offshore performance with the comfort and finish expected from a high-end British leisure Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB).

At around 10.4 metres long and 3.1 metres wide, it offers a spacious layout suited to cruising and tender use.

A pair of 300 hp Honda outboards delivers strong performance, supported by joystick steering and a bow thruster for easier handling.

On deck, passengers get ample seating, a forward sunpad, a wet bar, refrigeration, a sink and protection beneath the hardtop.

Boarding steps over the tubes, a swim ladder, towing fittings and a private toilet compartment add useful practicality for longer trips.

With roughly 900 litres of fuel capacity, the 34T combines extended range with reported maximum speeds approaching 60 knots.

Williams MX320 Jet Tender Tested for Speed, Grip and Agility

In a previous post (here) I published a promo video of the MX280 and this one. Now it’s time for the test.

The Williams MX320 Jet Tender reached 74 km/h during testing with its 90 hp Rotax engine, exceptional performance from a 3.2-metre hull.

At 35 km/h, it completed a 180-degree turn in less than two boat lengths, demonstrating remarkably responsive jet-powered handling.

Despite weighing only around 250 kg, the Williams MX320 accommodates four adults plus one child and includes additional bow storage.

The smaller Williams MX280 uses a 60 hp engine and weighs approximately 235 kg, offering slightly calmer performance from its shorter hull.

Testing produced 39 mph, with 40 mph considered achievable in flatter water, confirming strong performance for this compact yacht tender.

This real test was published on the Williams Jet Tenders YouTube channel.
