Marine charters

We have a long history of supporting marine operations around the southern coast and beyond. We can fly up to 100 nautical miles offshore (4.5 hours endurance).

Our marine services include (but are not limited to):

  • Live crayfish transfer
  • Fishing crew transfer
  • Transfer of equipment
  • Long-range offshore operations
  • Longline services 
     
We’ve been operating for more than 45 years, and our pilots are some of the most experienced in New Zealand.
