Kiwis planning to attend the 2014 Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show at the ASB Showgrounds in Auckland on May 15-18 are being offered a $3000 incentive to buy their tickets through the show’s popular website: www.boatshow.co.nz.

'Everyone who buys their tickets on line will not only avoid having to queue at the gate, they will also go in the draw to win a fantastic Viking Profish 440 Evolution IV fishing kayak package worth $3000,' says show general manager Dave Gibbs.

The Profish 440 Evolution IV is a top of the line Viking fishing kayak that boasts incredible stability in all conditions. This makes it ideal for fishing in both calm, harbour waters or in bigger seas off the coast.

The Viking Profish 440 Evolution IV is also an exceptionally practical fishing kayak with an unprecedented number of places to safely stow everything from cellphones and refreshments to bait and the catch.

The show’s on-line prize package also comes complete with an amazing array of practical extras designed to further enhance the fishing and kayaking experience.

These include a Hutchwilco multi-fit safety vest, deluxe fisherman seat, Propelz speed paddle, insulated fish bag, running rig and drift chute, two Railblaza rod holders, paddle leash and two rod leashes, C Tug kayak trolley, safety flag, fish stringer and Propelz deluxe seat cushion.

On line ticket sales to the 2014 Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show open on February 1 and continue until May 8; simply head to www.boatshow.co.nz and click on the 'Buy Tickets' tab.

Show goers who buy their tickets on line will also have the chance to win the show’s incredible $100,000 Stabicraft/Yamaha grand prize package (including a brand new model Stabicraft 2050 Supercab and an exceptionally-popular 150hp Yamaha four-stroke outboard), as well as two $2000 Viking kayak packages each day.
