TNL Pindar has celebrated another successful premium export, partnering with Lloyd Stevenson Boatbuilders to deliver their stunning new Catalyst 50 to Italy for the Django syndicate.
With timing and transit speed absolutely critical, TNL Pindar drew on its strong relationship with the local agent for the Zespri Kiwifruit shipping service to secure priority space on the Baltic Winter — one of the few vessels offering a direct sailing from Tauranga to the Mediterranean. This strategic move ensured the Catalyst’s journey was as fast and seamless as possible.
From the outset, TNL Pindar worked hand in hand with the Lloyd Stevenson Boatbuilders team to align shipping schedules with the vessel’s completion and successful sea trials. Once ready, the Catalyst was expertly placed into its custom cradle at the Auckland factory, professionally lashed, and fully shrink-wrapped to protect it throughout its international voyage.
With load dates confirmed, Boat Haulage transported the vessel 220 km by road to the Port of Tauranga, where TNL Pindar oversaw its smooth loading onto the Baltic Winter. The Catalyst is now en route to Vado Ligure, Italy — another example of TNL Pindar’s commitment to precision logistics, trusted partnerships, and world-class service for the marine industry.
