Biofouling border clearance for yachts and boats

WITH A CLEAN HULL, IT'S SMOOTH SAILING
There are new biofouling rules for yachts arriving in New Zealand.
Before you get here MPI will ask to see evidence that you have:

• Cleaned your vessel within 30 days before arrival
• Keep records of biofouling maintenance, such as receipts from haul outs or
  date-stamped photos of your cleaned hull.
