Brin Wilson Boats has been a hive of activity the past few months, with the team tackling a range of exciting projects. From cutting-edge installations to major restorations, the crew has been hard at work delivering exceptional results for local Gulf Harbour residents and beyond.
One standout project involved a complete deck refit on Babel Fish, a familiar name at Gulf Harbour Marina. The team also worked on Audacity, a Brin Wilson 45, re powering the vessel – another Gulf Harbour local. Currently, they’re performing a similar repower on a Don Webb vessel housed in the shed. This particular boat has an incredible story—it was fully rebuilt after sinking and is now receiving new engines to match its restored glory. Another ambitious project has been the transformation of Jontay, which now boasts a brand-new hull, a complete interior overhaul, a rewire, a hardtop upgrade, and a stunning repaint.

Synthetic teak decking has become a popular choice among boaties, and Flexiteek is leading the way as a practical and cost-effective alternative to traditional teak. Brin Wilson Boats has been busy meeting the growing demand, installing Flexiteek on vessels across the North Island. Their largest project to date was a 96ft sailing yacht in Whangārei, where the team spent nearly three months crafting and laying the new deck! Flexiteek is not only a favorite for retrofitting older vessels but is also being used on new builds. Brin Wilson is proud to collaborate with several Auckland-based boatbuilders who now incorporate Flexiteek into their builds.
Osmosis Solutions is also part of Brin Wilson Boats, and they strongly suggest that regular hull inspections should be part of your annual servicing routine to detect and address osmosis early. For those purchasing a boat, they strongly recommend a professional survey to assess the hull condition and identify any potential issues.
From repowers and refits to pioneering deck solutions and hull care, Brin Wilson Boats continues to set the standard for quality and innovation in marine services.
