Introducing the Fatboy, our large fender's shorter cousin who overindulged during COVID-19 lock down. This fender is 800mm long (length of a small fender) and 400mm wide (width of a large fender) and is ideal for craft with a low freeboard. Neoprene and Fleece covers also available.
Announcing the arrival of neoprene covers to the Hauraki Fenders family! These are 3mm neoprene, available in black. They are UV treated and reversible for an extra long life. And better still, this fabric is designed to reduce any potential scuff on your hull and help to eliminate any fender squeak. A heavy duty fender cover for when you are boat-to-wharf or when you just need something with a bit more grunt.
We are pleased to announce the first stage of our new online store is now open, with the New Zealand and Australian stores now open. The USA, Canada and European stores are well underway.
A record breaking 38 yachts lined up for the infamous SSANZ RNI. This 2-handed yacht race consists of 1200 nautical miles over 4 legs around the North Island of New Zealand. Over half the fleet were carrying Hauraki Fenders onboard for use during the stop overs. A true testament to how popular we have become in New Zealand.
We are proud to say we have officially entered the South Island lake market. The luxury charter vessel Pacific Jemm which operates on the stunning Lake Wakatipu, Queenstown is the latest commercial vessel to choose our products.
Our Hurricane Series Fenders continue to gain in popularity around the world with a steady increase in sales to the USA and Australia over the past six months. Our reputation for top quality products is spreading fast, in particular throughout professional sailing teams. The photo to the left is of a recent order for an Australian customer.
We are pleased to announce the recent delivery of 14 custom sized Hurricane series fenders to Sail GP for their F50 Foiling Catamarans. The size, shape and need for protection of these incredible yachts made our fenders a perfect fit.
