08 March 2010

Visitors to this year’s Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show in Auckland on May 13-16 will have the chance to win a huge selection of prizes including a $1000 kayak package every hour, a $7600 trip for two to Tonga and rides in one of the world’s fastest jet boats!

A $1000 Viking kayak package will be drawn every hour from 12 noon until the show closes on each of the four days. Each package consists of a 3.2m Viking Nemo kayak, a De Luxe seat, a standard paddle and a Hutchwilco multi-fit buoyancy vest and has a total retail value of just under $1200!

Also up for grabs at this year’s show will be a fabulous 8-day trip for two to Tonga, staying in the idyllic Hakula Lodge and fishing the magnificent tropical waters of stunning Vava’u.

These waters teem with all types of game fish including marlin, mahimahi, yellowfin tuna, sailfish, and giant trevally. The area is a real angler’s El Dorado and the prize includes three days exclusive charter on MV Hakula with Captain Jeff Le Strange, one of the Tonga’s top gamefishing skippers.

Also included are return airfares from Auckland to Vava’u, flying Pacific Blue and Chatham’s Pacific, and 7 nights twin share accommodation on the waterfront at Hakula Lodge.

Those wanting an unparalleled blast of adrenaline will also get their chance: a money-can’t buy once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to sit alongside champion jet boater Mark Cromie in his 2000hp rocketship.

This year’s show will also feature a special “haven” for female fishers, complete with Paula Trubshaw and Clare Power from Bay Fisher Magazine, Shewee’s Jude Dentice, Ngaire Dalton from the Rockstars Fishing Club and other top female anglers. This special new area will also feature some of the latest products for female fishers and Fisherchick Starter Packs for those new to the sport.
