Target has been hit!
28/11/2013 at 11:01 AM
A massive THANK YOU to all those who have pledged to bring the Boat Party into fruition! 44 hours to go and we've raised $1605 together!!!
I've decided to try and push the target out to $1800 with one final push. The extra money we raise will be spent on bringing in a sub for increased bass. So share this project with your friends and whanau over the next 40 hours and let's see if we can raise an extra $200 to melt our faces off with bass this coming Seaweek! Also means we might be able to pay an MC to host us on this here trip on the sea! Wouldn't that be nice?
See you in March beautiful people, I love you all!

26/11/2013 at 10:22 PM
3 days to go & 6 tickets to to sell till target is hit! I have decided to reward your efforts and provide 2 parties for the price of 1.
AFTER PARTY: Secret Waterfront Venue. 8pm - late. Crowdsourcing the party so vote for the kind of night/tunes you want to see play out over here: http://on.fb.me/Ih0Jbk
It will be at a venue where you can get dinner too. Offering a chance to recharge the batteries if you fancy a feast in between day time boat dancing and night time club dancing. VIP ticket holders get dinner FREE! Anyone who pre-purchases their Boat Party ticket gets in FREE. Pretty good deal hey? If you can't make the Boat Party during the day, but still want to come party at night. Tickets are available for $8 here too.
We've changed boats!

We found a better, bigger, badder more awesome boat company who likes our kaupapa and the wonderful work of Sustainable Coastlines. This one has 2 dancefloors - 1 outside & 1 inside, so whether you want to dance in the sunshine or get grimey under the shade - we have got you covered.
Check the boat out here:
4th & final DJ confirmed & added to the list
12/11/2013 at 3:13 AM
Good news! You asked, we listened: Jason Howson has just been added to the line-up. Leaving just one space for an up and coming DJ to feature with our 4 Headline Acts (the remaining spot will only be 40 minutes) but this is an opportunity for a newbie to show us their stuff. Voting opens in December. Details to follow. Check out Howsons sound here: http://www.audioculture.co.nz/people/jason-howson
