tender, the name given to a
yacht's
dinghy and to the larger vessels which service
navigation aids which are the responsibility of lighthouse authorities like
Trinity House. Originally, it was a small vessel attached temporarily to a larger ship for general harbour duties. A
press tender was a small vessel under the command of a lieutenant which, in the days of
impressment in the British Navy, took on board volunteers or pressed men and delivered them to the receiving ships in home ports. Conditions aboard press tenders were notorious, and it was their filth and overcrowding that were mainly responsible for the great incidence of typhus fever which decimated British fleets during the Revolutionary (1793–1801) and Napoleonic (1803–15) Wars against France when impressment was at its height.
