New Zealand Boat Builders?

Post by TomTom »

My brother will be moving to Hawkes Bay, Napier - and was asking me if there are many bateau builders/ boats in New Zealand?! I know of two I think! Curious if there are more?

My C17. A GV10 or two in chch. There was an OB17 in the North island, now sold on and a NV23. I’ve also seen a couple of FS14s on TradeMe. That’s my own experience. I’m sure there’s others. Building your own boat used to be quite a popular undertaking in NZ so there’s a few local designers that get built as well.

Thanks - did the NV23 get sold on as well? I seem to remember something along those lines?
