Silent Electric boats now available for hire on Kerikeri river, from Stone Store or Waiapapa Landing

Chris from NZ Electric Boat Co.

We have just launched our brand new electric boats for hire on Kerikeri river, a fantastic, relaxing way to explore the beautiful river on a silent electric boat. Start from Waipapa landing or from the Stone Store.

Hugely popular in Europe, our electric boats are the very first in New Zealand.

You can book a hire on our website electricboat.co.nz or you can buy a gift voucher. Vouchers can be delivered instantly by email so this is the perfect last minute Christmas present for anyone in Northland or Auckland - you can be sure they've never done it before!

We have a variety of different electric boats to suit singles, couples, families and large groups. With a maximum of 7 people per boat late groups can take several boats. The boats are so quiet you can chat to people in the next boat without raising your voice. You can also get up close to birds and wildlife without disturbing them.
You can steer the boat yourself and our staff are always on hand to help.

Please check out our website electricboat.co.nz for lots more info and pictures of all the boats. Book on the website or email hire@electricboat.co.nz if you have questions or need any help.

As this year is so quiet for tourists we really hope locals will support us too. We are offering a special club membership for locals so you just pay a monthly or annual subscription and you can have unlimited use of the boats whenever you like!

To say thanks for showing an interest and reading this far, use code NEIGHBOURLYLAUNCH to get 25% off any hire booked during December.

The discount code doesn't apply to buying gift vouchers but if you pass on the code with the voucher then the discount can be claimed when using the voucher to place a booking.

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
