Lighthouse Tender

A lighthouse tender is a specialized vessel used to service and supply lighthouses, especially those located on remote or difficult-to-reach areas. Its primary functions include delivering supplies like fuel, maintenance materials, and equipment, as well as performing repairs and installations on the lighthouse structures. These ships ensure that lighthouses remain operational, aiding maritime navigation and safety. Lighthouse tenders often have features suited for navigating challenging waters and may carry cranes or other equipment to facilitate maintenance tasks onshore or on the lighthouse itself.
