It’s always exciting seeing a project reach this stage.

Our Explorer 45 heads to the paint shop after months of fabrication.

When she returns, we’ll begin the final fit-out—installing the propulsion package, electrical systems, interior, glazing, electronics and all the details that bring the design to life.

Stay with us as we share the next chapter of the build.

We’re hiring.

Herley Boats is looking for a **Boatbuilder – Marine Fit-Out** to join our team in Tauranga.

This role is focused on the fit-out and finishing stages of our custom aluminium boats, including interior panels, cabinetry, hardware, electrical, plumbing, and general boatbuilding work.

We’re looking for someone practical, reliable, and detail-focused, with good hands-on skills and pride in their workmanship.

Marine experience would be ideal, but we’d also be interested in hearing from people with cabinet making, joinery, caravan/motorhome fit-out, or similar trade experience.

Full-time preferred, but we’re open to discussing options with the right person.

Message us directly or email [email protected] if you’re interested, or tag someone who could be a good fit.
