Boat City is a family-owned New Zealand marine dealership with 60+ years in business and more than 200 years of combined staff experience. With Auckland Marine Centre as our sister branch, we operate two North Island sites helping Kiwis choose the right boat, repower with confidence, and stay on the water.
Our multi-building showroom on Old State Highway 1, Kapiti Coast features 60+ boats on display (indoors and outdoors), from the latest releases to a large range of quality used boats and outboards. We partner with leading NZ builders — Senator Boats, Kiwi Kraft, McLay, Fi Glass, Reflex, Legacy — and we stock Yamaha and Mercury outboards on site for package deals and demos.
Since the doors opened in 1962, our simple philosophy has kept Boat City at the forefront of the industry, we are still leading by example.
We can, with confidence, state if you have looked at a brand then so have we. So if we do not have it there is a reason - as we have strict criteria for all brands we stock so we can offer you:
