Overview
Originally commissioned by Auckland University in 2002, this large-volume, New Zealand-built vessel was purpose-designed for multi-functional use, including coastal exploration, island access, and marine research.  Constructed by Qualicraft Marine using strip-planked timber and triaxial E-glass, it has proven to be a robust and seaworthy performer.  With a shallow draft ideal for close inshore cruising or anchorage, this vessel also boasts generous deck space, excellent access to the water, and a practical open-plan layout designed for both utility and comfort.

Key Features

  • Pilothouse: Spacious and sheltered, seating for six plus the skipper for extended cruising or survey operations.
  • Diving & Water Access: Equipped with onboard dive compressor, submersible swim platform, and hydraulic winch for tender deployment, making it perfect for dive excursions or water-based activities.
  • Galley & Facilities: Full galley, generous storage space, and a well-appointed marine toilet with hot shower off the cockpit for convenience during longer voyages.
  • Power & Performance:
    • Twin Caterpillar 3126 marine diesels producing 420hp each
    • ZF 286A gearboxes driving four-blade propellers
    • Service speed of 18 knots, max speed of 24 knots
  • Hydraulic Systems:
    • Cockpit winch, anchor windlass, and overhead gantry powered by onboard hydraulics
    • Auxiliary 240V hydraulic pump run by a 7.5kW genset for backup and dive compressor operation
