x

AUCKLAND SHIPBROKERS LIMITED as sole contracted brokers to the Royal New Zealand Navy is proud to present the last opportunity to own this piece of recent New Zealand Naval history. After the successful sale of two sister vessels early in 2007, we can now advise that the last sister ships, MV Kiwi and MV Wakakura are to be decommissioned from active service in early December 2007 and Auckland Shipbrokers Limited have been instructed to offer these vessels for sale by public tender. 

 
A unique opportunity is offered to purchase either one or two former Inshore Patrol Craft presented in excellent condition typical of the RNZN's high standards.

 
The Inshore Patrol Craft have completed essential service for 24 years in and around the New Zealand coast providing patrol, search and rescue and training roles and have been the principle surveillance vessels and guardians of this  countries inshore waters. The imminent arrival of new “Protector Class” inshore patrol vessels leaves the current fleet surplus to requirement.


Though originally designed as Inshore Patrol Craft these “Moa Class” vessels are suitable for a number of different roles with sister vessels proving successful operating in both commercial and private operations.


Suggested uses are:

Expedition Yacht • Various Tourist Ventures • Inter Island Cargo/Passenger Ship
Diving Tender • Supply Vessel/Tender • Research Ship • Remote Location Floating Accommodation
