BOAT WORLD

BOAT WORLD

EXPLORING LAND & SEA • The fact an iconic New Zealand boat manufacturer like Haines Hunter has had the courage and vision to embrace amphibious boating adds some serious weight to the whole sector.

SOUTHERN SUCCESS FOR SAIL GP • Forget the politics of dolphins for a minute and focus on the sailing; the short format, inshore stadium racing concept of the SailGP circuit is a winner. Formula One on water? Absolutely.

Ballast balance • At face value ballast is the most counter-intuitive system when it comes to going fast.

BOAT BLING

NORDIC NOTES • The word ‘shipshape’ literally means clean and neat, with everything in its place, trim and tidy. It’s also the perfect word to describe the Sargo 31 Explorer, a Finnish-designed and built compact cruiser which combines Scandi style and clever storage solutions with practicality and seaworthiness, all in a smart little package.

Fishing smarter with lures • In our fast-changing world modern anglers adapt to make fishing trips worthwhile.

ELECTRIC APPEAL • The widespread acceptance of electric vehicles (EVs) has undoubtedly helped stimulate interest in electric-powered vessels (EPV).

LITHIUM MAKES SENSE • LITHIUM HAS ALWAYS MADE SENSE TECHNOLOGICALLY – NOW IT’S SO AFFORDABLE IT ALSO MAKES SENSE ECONOMICALLY!

SOME EXAMPLES OF SUCCESSFUL EPV APPLICATIONS

BOAT BUSINESS

WHAT A WINNER! • The 2024 Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show has the biggest grand prize yet, and we got the chance to drive the boat package before the show.

DIY Descaling • An overheating secondhand outboard needed descaling and flushing to unclog its cooling passages. Norman undertook the task himself.

VANILLA DREAM • Beneteau’s Swift Trawler 41 Sedan represents a blend of style, comfort and performance in trawler yachts. We delve into the different aspects of the Swift Trawler 41 Sedan, including its design, features, performance, and overall suitability for different boating applications.

RETRO BOATS

Tale of a tiger • Jack Hargraves, one of New Zealand’s most experienced offshore cruising skippers, is a legend among long-distance sailors. Now aged 86, Hargraves is still found mucking about in boats. This is his story.

crossword

Captain Nemo • At every anchorage, all sailors look around to make a mental reckoning of the boats in the bay. Each gets a score. And inevitably there’s one stand-out; it becomes the ‘Boat of the Bay.’

SHRINE to SAILING • Since 1971, the Herreshoff Marine Museum has preserved the memory of the legendary ‘Wizard of Bristol’ while celebrating the America’s Cup Hall of Fame inductees.

Castlepoint billfish • When Mike Meredith and his family set out from Castlepoint in late January for a quiet day’s fishing they did not expect smoked marlin for dinner.

Racing years with Altair • In December 1934 the Tattersfield brothers missed out the Tauranga race in Janet for the first time in many years, probably because of Noel Tattersfield’s absence sailing with Georg Dibbern on Te Rapunga in the Trans-Tasman race to Melbourne.
