BOAT MODIFICATION
MacGregor 26 - 2015 becomes a Trimaran
We took a 2015 Macgregor and designed, engineered, and converted it into a trimaran. The project involved significant wall strengthening the main hull, adding beams, and building the outer hulls in-house.
Completed over approximately 2,000 hours in our home double garage, the refit also included a full repaint, new electrics, solar installation, updated windows, and repainted the cabin tops.
She sails upright now, comfortable and stable. Our time at anchor is improved and the extra width is a great addition, overall 5mtrs wide. Powered by a 60hp yamaha, she still does the fast speeds under motor as originally designed.
tablet stand
devyce.
A simple, aesthetically designed stand for tablet and mobile. Made from recycled plywood samples that were destined for the rubbish bin.
Minimal design, clean, sharp lines with intriguing end grain wood feature. Crafted using upcycled 18mm thick dressed plywood, giving a natural look. Stainless steel feet provide elevation angle for customised viewing.
Buying something new
We have the choice to buy something new. But before we do, we could fix something broken or make something old into new.
upcycled furniture
kiwiana chairs.
Used 1960’s oak lounge chairs were re-varnished and re-upholstered creating a striking 2 tone colour effect with individual motif inspired by New Zealand nature.
Nature inspired artwork screened in white on each chair back.
apron
dOUBLE dENIM.
Denim, paisley and 70-80s logo culture make this one of the most worn objects in the house. Every kitchen needs one.
BBQ cover
one-nude cover.
A standard black bbq cover lasts only 2 summers before perishing. This is a clear, durable unit that will last the years and not deteriorate in the NZ sun.
Using the buy-it-once principle eliminates future purchases of the same product.
