Machina Boats is an award-winning manufacturer of aluminium pontoon boats, handcrafted in Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. Founded in 2018, the company emerged from a deep passion for metal fabrication and aluminium boats, with a mission to redefine the traditional alloy pontoon boat in terms of performance, appearance, and design innovation.

The company’s design approach is meticulous and iterative, continuously refining each build to push the boundaries of efficiency, innovation, and aesthetics. Machina combines modern technology with true craftsmanship to produce boats that stand out for their high safety standards, outstanding stability, superior ride quality, and reduced sound resonance.

Known for their unique design featuring eight separate pontoons, Machina Boats provides unmatched stability and safety even in swamping scenarios, ensuring the boat remains upright and afloat in case of pontoon damage. Their boats use 5mm 5083 hull sides, the thickest in the New Zealand market, to drastically reduce water noise, delivering a quiet and comfortable experience unlike typical aluminium pontoon boats.

The company offers customization options, allowing clients to collaborate through the entire build process—from concept to completion—to create highly tailored vessels that reflect the owner's individual style and needs. Machina emphasizes owner involvement, encouraging visits and direct input during construction to ensure satisfaction.

Additionally, Machina provides an exclusive owners' community called the "Machina Armada," which includes access to private social media groups, fishing competitions, and company events, fostering a passionate network of boat owners.

Machina's location in Hawkes Bay, New Zealand gives it direct access to the Pacific Ocean, facilitating extensive product development and testing.
