Simplicity

New Zealand

New Zealand is an ideal testing ground for boat development, with access to some of the most advanced Marine Architects, Engineers and material manufacturers who have acquired a great amount of knowledge over time from events like the America’s Cup campaigns.  We at Mac Boats® continue to evolve new design concepts with knowledge gained from these skilled people.
The Southern Ocean which we are surrounded by in New Zealand provides some of the best testing waters. With our exposed coastline and some of the roughest waters globally, they test our theory of designs under rough natural conditions.

The unique design where the inner and outer hull is bonded together in one piece, or “kissed off”, continues along each beam from bow to stern. This provides great strength and stiffness in the hull. This same process and technology was exported to the USA in the early 1990’s and is now being used by one of the largest trailer boat manufacturers in the world today.
