Who Is Everyman Boats?

The 2008 Waikato Boating and Leisure show saw the introduction of the Everyman Brand.  On display was an Everyman 635 Hard Top (H/T) and an Everyman 550 Cuddy.  They both attracted alot of attention and Everyman Boats Limited quickly established itself as a boat manufacturer that would set new standards in both performance and stability. Our philosophy is to combine a moderate deadrise “V” with wide chines and superior hull rigidity to produce a stable yet responsive hull.

The Everyman hull does not require a flooding keel to achieve its stated goal.

In three short years Everyman Boats Limited has on offer a range of boats to suite most boaties needs, from the entry level 470 to the blue water 740.

Everyman Boats Ltd has established dealerships in Auckland to service the biggest boating population in New Zealand, and has recently secured export markets.

Customers can choose to deal with long established and reputable Dealers offering leading outboard brands such as Yamaha, Mercury, and Evinrude.

News

The Hutchwilco Auckland Boat Show

The Hutchwilco Boat Show is on again, from 17th to 20th May 2012. Come and see us in hall 2 stand 210. Not only do we have a new release (550 H/T), but also the best boats at the best value for money

New release –550 Hard Top

At this year's show, we have a new release. Our 550 hull measures 5.6 metres over all, but has the sea keeping and room of a considerably larger boat. It's built incredibly strong and is capable of tackling sea conditions normally the preserve of much larger boats. It will suit both ends of the buying spectrum; the boater wanting to downsize to a strong safe and comfortable boat yet easily handled by two persons, and the younger boater who wants to push the boundaries with a $40,000.00 budget.

Vanuatu Export

At last year's Auckland Boat Show we met an Australian 'fisho' who displayed interest in our range of Centre Console boats. Three months later he sent a friend (ex pat Kiwi and Surtees owner) to sea test our 635 Centre Console. He was truly amazed with the agility and handling of our hull and on his recommendation a deal was struck. He chose a 595 hull due to his desire to predominantly fish solo.

From the outset it was clear this fitout was going to be extensive, however, as the build progressed the purchaser just kept adding to his 'wish list'.

The result was an Everyman Centre Console that is the envy of any keen fisherman, and that unfortunately will never see our shores, as it was exported to Vanuatu.

Commercial Boat

Everyman Boats has been commissioned to build a 940 Commercial Boat for Cray fishing from Leigh. The hull is a special design as the purchaser specified a Yamaha 300 hp V6 4 stroke motor for propulsion, and 8mm bottom for strength and durability. Also specified was a 500 litre under floor fuel tank in addition to cool storage for 6 fish bins also under floor.

Tauranga Boat Show

The Tauranga Boat Show held last November was very successful for Everyman Boats also with a surprise buyer from Australia purchasing our 685 Sportfisher.

The Australian couple were holidaying in a campervan with no intentions of buying a boat in New Zealand, however, saw our range and displayed interest. A quick sea test the next day, and the deal was done.

Everyman Boats undertook the export and the purchasers had to only pay a couple of hundred Aussey dollars to clear it off the Melbourne wharf, before driving it to their home on the Victorian South Coast.

The Land of Milk and Honey

Prior to Christmas we delivered two everyman 595 boats to families in the King Country. Both families had different desires for their boats. One was replacing his 16 year old Fyran and asked for a custom boat to suit west coast beach launching. The moderate 15 degree deadrise, great handling attributes of the 595 hull made for a great platform. In their words "the boat has exceeded our expectations."

The second of the two families purchased a 595 H/T (extra) – 40mm higher hardtop as the captain is 6'5" tall, and had a custom built davit fitted for hauling cray pots They too are extremely happy with their purchase.

Waikato Boat Show

The Waikato Boat & Leisure Show was canned earlier this year because the organizers of the Auckland International Boat Show slid theirs back to co-inside with the Rugby World Cup.

This has left a big hole for the many keen boaters and fisherman in and around the Waikato (not to mention Everyman Boats Ltd cleaned up at the last year’s show).

Don’t despair; we will be at the Tauranga Boat Expo on November the 4th, 5th and 6th 2011.  We would love to see you there to discuss how we can help you better enjoy your boating.

Export Markets

We have secured our first export order recently.  The boat is a 595 centre console with every conceivable extra being added.  Its destination is Vanuatu.

Other enquiries are being fielded from Fiji and Tahiti.  The establishment of our website will further enhance our opportunities in the Pacific and Australian markets.

The attributes that make our boats successful in New Zealand apply equally to our offshore neighbours.

Feedback

Over the recent years we have invited our many customers to put ‘pen to paper’ and tell us a little about their respective boats.  Our new website has quite a few of these for you to read.  They all seem to say pretty much the same thing; the boats are made very well, perform very well, look great and happy to have chosen an Everyman Boat.  A few have expressed some trepidation at buying such a new brand, but all go on to say the whole experience was pretty well faultless.

To this end I must say publicly a big thank you to my business partner Nigel, who has managed to build boats to such a high standard under sometimes trying conditions.  Without his skill and dedication to the job, Everyman Boats would not have been able to make headway in such difficult economic times.

New Release: Everyman 470c

Its official, our latest addition to the range (our 470 Cuddy) was described by Norman Holtzhausen of Trade-a-boat, as being the best under 5.0m boat in its class.  He describes its stability whilst under way and at rest as being outstanding.  All this with no flooding keel in sight!

Wrap up

Over the last 30 years I’ve been involved in many different Industries, only to become active in the Boating Industry in the last four years.  Interesting times … as with all industries there are many good guys and some not so good guys, some you can trust with your life and others you wouldn’t.

Just remember there is no such thing as a bargain when it comes to boats … if the price is sooo good, it’s either because the seller is taking a ‘bath’, or it’s a boat you shouldn’t trust with your life!
