Good advice to live by.

“If it’s not yours, don’t take it. If it’s not true, don’t say it. If it’s not right, don’t do it.” It’s the kind of advice that sounds simple—almost too simple—until you’ve spent enough years on the water to understand why it matters.

Boats have a way of amplifying character. There’s no hiding from your choices when you’re living in close quarters, dependent on your gear and your crew. Integrity isn’t a slogan out here. It’s practical seamanship.

The older sailors I’ve met don’t talk much about philosophy. They talk about trust, responsibility, and doing things the proper way—even when no one is watching. Especially then.

Ben drove his big 5.6m Sportfish half cab to us from Outback Qld - and got a Chemi/mig-weld kit installed on it this past week.
Ben does a lot of skiing on the lakes out there with friends and family, and is keen to venture to the offshore reefs on future holidays, and wanted greater stability, as the boat was very deep v and was very 'tender'. We say "WAS" as the boat will now be rock solid and stable :) and will be able to turn on a dime and really 'throw' those skiiers around more! Woohoo!

Ben asked us to extend the Collar as much as possible, so Pat fabricated a gusset for the Collar to be welded & glued to, to give more lift & stability in the rear.

Reece brought his lovely, big 4.4m Aquamaster all the way from Rockhampton to us to install a Chemi/mig-weld Collar kit to.
Certainly looks a treat, and he's now off to the outer reefs in max safety & stability - and has promised to send us photos!

Big thanks goes to our NEW INVESTOR!
Their investment has enabled us to stay open, continue to improve, and help us keep more people safe on the water.
We need a hand up, and our prayers were answered.

Our new shipment of stock arrived late last year, and we're working hard to fulfill the backlog of orders we've gathered these last few months!

- Photo of Pat trying (& failing) to tip the boat over - for attention :)

Make your boat float LEVEL & UPRIGHT!

BASIC FLOTATION (most common) = Minimum foam used, usually put under seats or floor = Just enough to keep the nose tip of the boat above water. Gives you and your family something to cling to in the WATER, while awaiting rescue.
• High risk of additional injury due to submerged threats & weather exposure.

LEVEL FLOTATION, uncertified (rare for tinnies & small boats) = Possible with the Kapten Boat Collars fitted = Boat floats UPRIGHT and level when flooded, allowing you and your family to stay INSIDE the boat to await rescue or to slowly putt-putt back to shore.
• Little additional injury risk.

Don't risk losing your catch, your fishing gear, your keys, your phone… your life - or worse... the life of someone you care about! Avoid disaster tomorrow > prevent it today.

Kapten Boat Collars are foam flotation devices that fit around the outside of the boat, for enhanced performance, greater stability and a huge increase in flotation (gives LEVEL FLOTATION in most boats).

Kapten Boat Collars can be self-fitted or professionally installed. Boxed Collar kits are shipped Oz-wide & over to N.Z.
