Classic wooden boats from new zealand. most of these old boats were built using native kauri timber; perhaps the best wooden boat building material on the planet!. Wood. the traditional boat building material used for hull and spar construction. it is buoyant, widely available and easily worked. it is a popular material for small boats (of e.g. 6-metre (20 ft) length; such as dinghies and sailboats).. Black pearl - (2011) the black pearl is still our biggest vessel built to date. as with adagio, the 31 metre lomocean designed passagemaker was a diverse projects-managed project which entailed fabricating the hull, superstructure and most mechanical services here in our workshop based in palmerston north, before transporting her up to whangarei to have her interior fit out and painting completed..
Hananui - (2009) the department of conservation on stewart island commissioned the new 13 metre barnett offshore design as they required a replacement for their previous boat jester, a 36 year old ex-converted fishing boat.. Yes, i did arrive on a plane rather than on a boat. working for ‘john gladden boat builders’ in milford on the north shore quickly introduced me to the new zealand way of cold moulding wooden boats – i always call this time my second apprenticeship.. 19 boat building jobs in new zealand available on trade me jobs now – your dream job lives here – apply today!.
