New Zealand Ship and Marine Society

This website has been on line since 2002. We are continually adding to the site as material becomes available.

About  tells our history,  what services we offer and  how to join us. It also has links to a number of other useful web sites. 

Shipping News  contains topical news about maritime events in the New Zealand area or to ships that are associated with New Zealand.

New Zealand Marine History  contains short histories of  shipping companies and the ships which trade or have traded to New Zealand, the ports of New Zealand and the personalities.

Publications contains a list of  marine interest books. Books that are published by the Society or that the Society can supply have a link to an order form.

Magazine  includes extracts from our regular publication "New Zealand Marine News".

We are keen to hear from anyone who may have anything to contribute to the site.

We hope you enjoy your visit.
