Phil, Kev and the team always go above and beyond when it comes to customer needs and service. Nothing is ever too hard so if you’re looking for a new Surtees or Stabi or even just general fishing/boating gear…

KP Marine would be the best shop in Wellington in my opinion.

I have known Kevin for about 20 years so when I had my best snapper rod break (a Diawa Saltist) and unable to find another I paid him a visit to see what he had. He introduced me to the Penn Ocean Assassin rod and then matched it up with the Penn Fathom 25 reel. Having used Shimano TLD25 reels for years I obtained a Penn Fathom 15 reel for my light line nylon fishing.

I also purchase another Ocean Assassin rod and 15 reel for my light braid fishing. Kevin’s knowledge of my type of fishing helped in directing me to the best jigs for my type of fishing.

Kp Marine has been the best company to deal with my purchase of my 1850 Supercab Stabicraft.

Both in the sale and looking after me after my purchase. Top team and nothing is a problem when it comes to helping the client. Phil Lovell (1850 Supercab).

Since purchasing our first Surtees from KP Marine back in 2017 we have always been extremely impressed and satisfied with the boat servicing, support, and customer service that we have received from Phil, Gav, Kev and the team.

Their range of fishing gear, tackle and bait is second to noone, and the free salt ice is a bloody awesome touch. 10/10, highly recommended.
