The Boat
Seahawk is a 12m Phoenix aluminium tri hull built in Whangarei, Northland. Built to maritime survey standards Seahawk has a complete inventory of safety equipment. The crew make you aware of all health & safety facets whilst you are on board.
Seahawk has the latest Garmin electronic navigation with touchscreen GPS, fish eye 3D, google charts and all this can be over laid with a 40 kilometre bird tracking radar. An AIS vessel tracking system plus a shore based GPS not only allows Seahawk to be aware of other commercial vessels but our land based crew has our location at all times.
Seahawk is powered by a 480hp Cummins engine that allows a comfortable cruising speed of 12kts giving us the opportunity to access the deep waters of our beautiful Hauraki Gulf. Whether it’s a full day charter or twilight evening fish you can sit back & relax whilst heading to the fishing grounds.
We have a four burner hob top & grill, fridge, gas kalefont and a large cooking plate BBQ on the main deck. Tea, coffee and water are available on request throughout your charter
Separate fully equipped toilets for males & females are a feature not commonly found on fishing charter vessels.

| Daniel (Danny) Hansen |  |
Danny was born with a hook in his mouth. His father was a commercial fisherman so has been involved all his life. He began charter fishing in the early 1990s and has skippered boats on the waters of Auckland harbour & the Hauraki Gulf for 25 years and in his own words says “if I wasn’t doing an occupation that I have love & passion I would have to go out and find a real job”
Crew
All Seahawk charters have a skipper and deck boss. If you are prepared to listen & learn our team will teach you to fish the best we know how.
