Based in Whangarei, New Zealand our team of specialised marine engineers handcraft every Offshore NZ boat. Their attention to detail is second to none and our technicians pride themselves in producing only quality boats.

Innovation is at the forefront of every element of the Offshore team and we only select the best of the best in the marine industry.

Offshore NZ boat technicians take welding, painting and final assembly to a higher level. As Plate Boat Specialists, each Offshore NZ boat has quality that you can see and feel.

Hand built and designed by marine professionals in New Zealand with extensive and diverse expertise in mechanical engineering, sheet metal and broiler fabrication, our team has the developed the skills to enable them to deliver the best plate boats in Australasia.

Like all high performance boats the key to great performance is a combination of design and material elements. The key lies in the hull construction, specifically, the heavy plate alloy used to achieve greater strength and stiffness than most others in its class.  A mighty eight millimetre alloy hull skin, and 5mm heavily constructed base framework give the hull of a Offshore NZ boat a very low centre of gravity and solid feel in the water. The overall hull design and technical dynamics are all part of the equation that add up to its accomplished ride.

Unique design elements also include customised folding bait boards, gunwale drawers, and customised glass hard top’s providing not only a unique look but extremely clear and unobstructed views out front.

Confirmation of the Offshore NZ technical teams ability to lead innovation in the marine industry in Australasia was their recent award of the winners of the under 7 metre category at the 2021 Hutchwilco Boat show, recently in Auckland, New Zealand.
