Busy Docks and Great Conversations!

And just like that, the Auckland On Water Boat Show delivered another fantastic few days on the docks.

 With the weather turning it on for most of the weekend, Jellicoe Harbour was buzzing as visitors made their way through the marina, stepping aboard the latest boats and catching up with familiar faces from across the industry. For the team at 36° Brokers, it was a busy and rewarding few days connecting with both long-time clients and plenty of new faces.

The 36° Brokers display featured three standout models that drew steady interest throughout the show.

Making her first appearance in New Zealand, the Excess 11 quickly became a talking point on the dock. Designed for sailors who enjoy a more connected and performance-focused experience, the Excess range continues to build momentum locally, and the response from visitors stepping aboard was hugely positive.

Alongside her was the Beneteau Oceanis 40.1, a yacht that continues to resonate strongly with Kiwi cruisers. Known for its clever use of space, easy handling and comfortable layout, the Oceanis range remains one of the most popular choices for sailors planning coastal cruising or longer adventures.

Completing the display was the Beneteau Swift Trawler 41, a proven coastal cruiser that attracted plenty of attention from those interested in exploring New Zealand’s coastline in comfort. With impressive range, practical living spaces and dependable performance, the Swift Trawler range continues to appeal to owners looking for serious cruising capability.

Over the four days the team welcomed a steady stream of visitors aboard the boats. From experienced sailors exploring their next upgrade to people beginning their journey into boat ownership.

Boat shows are always a great opportunity to reconnect with the boating community, and this year’s show was no exception.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by the 36° Brokers display for a chat or stepped aboard one of the boats. If you missed the show and would like to learn more about any of the models on display - Connect With The Team Today!
