Westpark caters for commercial operators W estpark Marina has all the facilities to cater for commercial operators with two marine Travelifts and a capacity to lift 70 tonnes, around 12,000m² of hardstand space, electricity and water. There is a full range of services available, including marine engineers, boatbuilders, canvas fabricators, electrical contractors and a chandlery. We also allow independent contractors on site. However, they need to register with the marina and provide proof of insurance. Our team is focussed on providing a friendly and professional service. Glen is Auckland born and bred, and brings loads of experience to Westpark following stints driving Travelifts on and off for the past eight years at the Gold Coast Marine Centre and Orams. Adrian was brought up in Wales. He has ventured all over the world and done extensive ocean sailing in the northern hemisphere. Adrian brings his background experience in construction and heavy transport to Westpark. Mike is a Liverpool man who made his way to Miami, Florida and began work on a superyacht. He arrived in New Zealand two years ago with his English wife and has been working at the Viaduct for the last year or so as a general marina assistant. Born in Wanganui, Kyle is West Park's youngest team member. He has been with us for over a year since joining straight out of school and is keen to assist in all aspects of the Travelift and hardstand. The head of customer service is Miranda, who comes from a boating family. She grew up on Great Barrier Island in a bay where the only access was by boat. Her grandfather, a chief engineer, has been on boats since 1932 and her father and brother both have boats at Westpark. So come and meet us. We will do all we can to look after your requirements and get your vessel back in the water as soon as possible – where it should be, earning income. Customer service is our core focus and we believe there are no traffic jams on that extra mile.
