It started with a shed on the water.
In 2003 we wanted a houseboat. Something simple to sleep on and potter around the estuary with friends and family. Everything on the market was expensive and inflexible.
So, with help from marine designers, we built a modular pod system, bolted a deck on, put a garden shed on top and went boating. That shed is still afloat.
Since then Pontoonz has shipped over 5,000 pods across New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific, to Antarctica, and to the course marshals at SailGP and the America's Cup.
In 2026 the business passed to new ownership with the same moulds, the same Auckland manufacturing and the same approach: the pods are the hull, everything above the deck is yours.
The pontoon system the professionals chose
Proven at the Top
Marker boats and buoys for every SailGP regatta since 2018 and the 2017 and 2024 America's Cup.
Built to Last
Rotomoulded, marine-grade, UV-stabilised polyethylene with a 5 to 7mm wall. 15+ year life, no antifoul.
Any Size You Want
Pods bolt into a hull of any length and width. Add pods later as the project grows.
One System, Every Job
The same pods build a houseboat, a pump barge, a jetty and a swim raft.
Genuinely DIY
Cut, drill and bolt. The first Pontoonz houseboat was a garden shed on pods. It's still afloat.
Made in NZ, Shipped Direct
Designed in New Zealand and contract-moulded in Auckland since 2004. Delivered to Australia, the Pacific and beyond.
