A Little Birthday TLC: Te Waiora is Taking a Well-Earned Break
With our birthday just around the corner, we figured it's the perfect time to give one of our hardest-working crew members a bit of pampering. After all, we all deserve some TLC.
From Monday 12th October to early November, Te Waiora will be out of the water for scheduled maintenance. It's planned, it's routine, and it's exactly the kind of care that keeps every crossing safe, smooth and reliable because island time is only on time when our boats are in top shape.
What does the timetable look like?
While Te Waiora is having her spa time, the following sailings will be running:
Monday to Friday
Auckland to Waiheke
7:15AM, 9:15AM, 11:15AM, 1:15PM, 3:15PM, 5:15PM, 7:45PM
Waiheke to Auckland
6:30AM, 8:15AM, 10:15AM, 12:15PM, 2:15PM, 4:15PM, 6:15PM, 8:45PM
Saturday, Sunday + Public Holidays
Auckland to Waiheke
7:15AM, 9:15AM, 11:15AM, 1:15PM, 3:15PM, 5:15PM, 7:45PM
Waiheke to Auckland
8:15AM, 10:15AM, 12:15PM, 2:15PM, 4:15PM, 6:15PM, 8:45PM
Why we're doing it now?
Scheduled maintenance is how we keep our promise that island time is on time. Taking Te Waiora out for a planned check-up now, ahead of our birthday and the busy summer season does mean fewer surprises later, and a fleet that's ready for Summer, more sailings and more of you on board.
She'll be back on the water from early November, looking (and running) her best.
Thanks for your patience while we give her some love.
See you onboard soon.
