4 Sep - Springfield
Water was too high for jet boating but still a great day in the office hosting the AGM of the commercial jet boat association (NZCJBA) at Jet Boat World.
Great place to celebrate the story of the man who made everything we do possible!

2 Sept - Springfield.

As the days draw out and Spring arrives, the opportunities for a quick rip up the Waimak Gorge shouldn’t be overlooked.🌞😎.

1 Sep - Springfield
First day of Spring!
The team from PGG Wrightson Seeds stopped in en route to the west coast for a little corporate gathering!
A quick shoot, a bite to eat and a blast upstream under the watchful eye of P*e Wee and Alfie!

Big brown water hides the ‘gators.
Raul & Winston from Manila came looking with us in ‘Air Force 2’ but no luck!
Mind you, that view of the snow covered alps is pretty cool!

27 August - Springfield
The team from Ternary Kinetics had a deep dive into the Waimakariri Gorge, exploring right through to Dixon’s Cove at the top of the gorge.
ALP 2 & ALP 8 handled the task with ease, the big water, providing a unique and exciting experience on river.
Jet Boat World provided an entree into Bill Hamilton’s world… with Robyn’s Gourmet Burger lunch the main!

Drivers, Paul & Andy.
On top of the of the world?
Well at least at the top of the gorge!
The Waimakariri Gorge!
At Dixon’s Cove, named after pioneer jet boater Duke Dixon (location also known as Esk Pool)

25 Aug - Christchurch.

A couple of days with blue sky and brown water have proven perfect conditions for Air Force 2, the only operational commercial airboat in NZ.
When the water flows through the weeds it’s time to go searching for ‘gators!👀🐊

23 Aug - Springfield
Our Chinese guests joined a regular Japanese group from Sonoda today.
Big fun in big water as the overnight rain in the back country turned our water brown and doubled in size overnight.
Back on land Shepherd Raewyn entertained the kids, big and little with her dogs heading the ewes… but it was her two week old lambs who snatched a few hearts!
The Forest walk revealed an almost Kiwi!… and our big Matai… but as always ‘P*e Wee’ and ‘Alfie’ became the centre of attention after lunch.
What a top day for our guests… and us!!
