20.01.2022 In late 2020 the NSW Game Fishing fraternity lost one of its most passionate supporters with the passing of Adrian Yates. A good friend of Adrian asked us to share a video of Adrian’s last trip to sea in his beloved game boat Eagle, but for some reason our post didn’t make it out. With the start of 2021 upon us and a great time of reflection we thought we’d take the opportunity to share our thoughts and prayers for Adrian and his family and friends and share the video. Adri...an was an incredible supporter of our business, one of the most fastidious, informed and obsessed owners we’d ever worked with and he helped us to grow, pushing us to implement leading edge design and technology into Eagle, ensuring we built him the best custom game boat available. Vale Adrian, you are and will always be sadly missed.

08.01.2022 Great to have our Head Designer & Naval Architect Adam Evripidou on-site from Sydney inspecting his latest design, the all-new custom pilot boat for PNG Ports Corporation before she hits the water in January. According to Adam she is pretty close to perfect.

06.01.2022 In our recent newsletter we included a historical feature from Bill Wright, another gem outlining some of the history of our business. Bill writes about the Fairmiles that we built and commissioned for the Armed Forces during World War II. Another fascinating insight into the history of our business and the amazing effort of those that came before us. https://www.wrightsons.com.au/world-war-ii-the-fairmile-st/
