We took our brand new Southern 816XP Twin Rig out for a spin earlier this week, and it's safe to say it did not disappoint! 🚤🔥

Plenty of power behind this beast with its twin Yamaha F200s, delivering a smooth ride and impressive performance on the water. First impressions? Absolutely outstanding.

Boating NZ recently tested the Brig Navigator 20 on the water, and it didn't disappoint! Overall, it’s a capable, confidence-inspiring boat that backs up its looks with solid performance.

Brig Navigator 20 — Ukraine's finest just landed in NZ, and she's a boss on the water. Redesigned hull, premium finish, and enough grunt to keep the whole crew grinning. Full review up now.

We are super excited for the team heading down to Wellington this weekend for the NZJSBA NZ Jetsport Nationals.

Our Service Manager Sean has put in the hard yards prepping and testing the Yamaha GP1800R WaveRunner and our sponsored NZ1 pro rider Noah Skipps is ready to put it all on the line and go to battle with his 3 x 2025 National titles.

We wish him all the best! ✨
