Honolulu

Tom_Heberle.JPG"The Hawaii Pilots Association currently operates a fleet of five NAIAD pilot boats to provide pilotage service to vessel traffic on four of the Hawaiian Islands. From the day when we launched our first NAIAD (the 12.6 m HONOLULU) in 2002, the NAIAD pilot boats have proven to be extremely rugged and seaworthy. Very good stability and a comfortable, dry ride in rough seas are two characteristics of the NAIAD high performance hulls that the pilots and boat crews really appreciate.

The superb ride and innovative design of our NAIAD pilot boats was recognized by “Professional Mariner” magazine, when they named the HONOLULU to their annual list of the top 50 new vessels delivered in North America."

Best regards,
Tom Heberle

Naiad Water Taxis

Dick Chapman"During the mid 1990’s having lived in the Marlborough Sounds for some time, my partner and I identified the need for fast safe water transport to move groups of tourists and others between Picton and accommodation houses.

To facilitate this we commissioned Naiad Inflatables to build the first wide bodied 9 meter craft they had completed. The result was a craft that I worked for 11 years in all weather conditions and travelled some 850,000 nautical miles in. ‘West Bay’ was fast stable and above all safe. In all the conditions I worked, in and around Cook Strait, I never once felt unsafe.

By the year 2000 the business had grown so much we commissioned a larger 11.3 meter craft named ‘Simply the Best’. This vessel helped us carry 20 – 25,000 passengers per year and in the time we owned her she travelled around 200,000 nautical miles.

These two vessels were an outstanding investment and a credit to the design team at Naiad Inflatables."
