I am looking for advice as to what to buy in the way of a tender for a
larger boat. I am looking for a quality product and have visited the
baot shows and have not been able to get enough differentiation between
the Nouverana, Nautico, and Avons in the 11-13 foot size range equipped
usually with 30-50 Hp 4 stroke Yamaha's.

Any advice from all o fthe experts out there?

The three you mention are all popular, as is Caribe. I happen to own
a Caribe since it came with my latest boat. I would rate it's quality
as average or a little better. The quality leader in inflatables over
the years has always been Avon and is where I would put my own money
in the absence of any other information.
