Nautical Contracting’s Managing Director, Adrian Brothers has a distinguished track record in the international marine industry. He works closely with a Board of Advisors comprised of experienced business professionals, and a small hands-on management team. The members of his team are primarily New Zealanders, who have accumulated a wealth of knowledge through working on some of the world’s finest super yachts and America’s Cup projects.
Andrew Hope is the company’s Senior Project Manager. With extensive experience in teak decking, he has successfully led many of the company’s high profile projects to completion. Steve King is the Factory Manager, ensuring the smooth running of the Auckland manufacturing plant as well as heading up special projects as required. Collectively, the Nautical Contracting team can claim that they have been involved in more teak decking projects than any other company in New Zealand.
New Zealand’s well deserved reputation for boat building prowess comes through a depth of industry knowledge and quality of training that is unsurpassed around the globe. Like most of their kiwi counterparts the members of the Nautical Contracting team are multi-skilled and come equipped with a ready supply of kiwi ‘can-do’. The long term relationships they have built with their clients testify to their readiness to find solutions, not problems, and do whatever it takes to complete each project on time, within budget and always to a high standard.
Nautical Contracting has completed projects on many of the world’s finest super yachts, in many different locations around the world - from the 192 foot explorer vessel MY Ulysses in the USA; to the 242 foot SY Mirabella V in Southampton; and MY Unbridled, built at Trinity Yachts in Mississippi. Current projects include the teak decks on an ex navy frigate being radically transformed into a state of the art mega yacht in Abu Dhabi, as well as continuing work for Fitzroy Yachts, NZ, on their next vessel ‘Zefira’.

Testimonial
Project: MY Codene
"During the NZ summer of 2007 we commissioned Nautical Contracting Ltd to supply and install over 200 m3 of teak decking onboard the 115’ vessel MY Codene. The project was completed on time and to budget in a very challenging outdoor environment. The installation was of an extremely high standard and the finished result has had many compliments."
" Recently we asked Nautical Contracting to attend to what we thought was warranty work. Without hesitation or question they sent tradesmen half way around the world to attend to the work. The damage subsequently proved not to be their responsibility but they made the repairs in short order and minimal cost."
"It is rare to find such responsiveness and back up in this industry. We would not hesitate to recommend Nautical Contracting Ltd for future decking projects."
