Meet the maker - NICK FENTON
Some people discover their calling. Nick Fenton was born with his. As a kid growing up around the waterways of New Zealand, he was already building boats for the local lagoon -- not as a hobby, but as a compulsion. The water, the craft, the problem of making something that sails well and looks right. It was always going to be boats.
After finishing school in 2002, Nick went straight into the industry, joining Tristram Marine in Hamilton as a composite boat builder. He worked across mold and plug making and the woodwork department, learning the fundamentals of how boats are built -- not just designed. That hands-on grounding would shape everything that came after.
He went on to study a Bachelor of Design with Honours in Marine Design at Massey University, where a philosophy started to crystallise that still drives every Flyfin today: practical and strong boats don't need to be ugly. It sounds simple. In practice, it's rare.
From there, Nick contracted across some of the most demanding corners of the marine world -- designing hydrofoil speed boats, then moving into project managing builds for the superyacht industry. By the time Flyfin Boats was formed in 2015, he had a depth of experience most boat builders never accumulate.
The first Flyfin was built for a family member. FF -- friends and family -- is where the name came from. Word spread the way it only does when something is genuinely different. People saw the boat, wanted one, and came knocking. A business grew from that.
A deliberate shift to full aluminum construction became a turning point. Nick had never been fond of the New Zealand aluminum boat market -- but the realisation came that it wasn't the material that made bad boats. It was the way they were being built. Switching to aluminum was a conscious choice that unlocked freedom of design, making it possible to build exactly what each customer needed without compromise. From that point, the standard was set: there are no "B" grade surfaces at Flyfin. Every part is well resolved. Every surface considered. The whole boat is the product.
The amphibious system became central to Flyfin's identity. Until 2019, the only amphibious boats widely available were inflatable Sealegs models. Nick saw a gap for something more specific -- purpose-built fishing and family boats that were safer, more practical, and better performing, designed for customers who live close to the coast and want direct access to the ocean from their own backyard.
What Nick is most proud of today is the level of refinement. Flyfin boats are designed and engineered to look like a product -- not a backyard build. Super strong, with clean lines that reflect the care behind them. That full-circle from a university philosophy to a finished product on the water.
The vision from here is clear: Flyfin as a household name for performance offshore boats -- amphibious and conventional. A range that brings customers into the brand at an accessible entry point, and at the top end, delivers a build quality unseen in New Zealand or Australia. A product, and a customer base, to be genuinely proud of.
FlyFin boats have a cult like following from their expanding vessel owners.
Please note that FlyFin also has an amphibious range and a centre console range. Ask your SWAN MARINE rep for further information.
