A boat like that would typically have a tender more like this:

I saw a guy with a 24' Bennington pontoon swinging on davits behind

Increasingly popular with the megayacht crowd is to tow a good sized
center console about 100 yards back. They use hi-tech tow line that
floats and is stronger than steel, and the center console will be
outfitted with a large stainless steel towing strap on the bow just
above the waterline.
