Had an awesome day out with a local Taupo based company They are doing some incredibly important pest control work around NZ helping to protect New Zealand’s ngahere and the taonga that live in it.... An awesome bunch of humans, that are dedicated to the task.... Was a super fun day, with some super fit people, we look forward to hosting you again guys. Tim & Liv

Just thought we would share comments from one of our recent guests, M, A and family.... they were such a joy to have on our awesome vessel.

"Thanks Tim, and Olivia,
What a great time! I wasn’t aware of Top Cat before now, hadn’t heard from others, was just by searching online, and I’ll be honest I thought I had chosen too smaller a boat when I arrived, but I was proven so wrong and from now on will not look anywhere else with the service you and your wife gave us. Best-ever crew on Lake Taupo and we have done quite a few over the years.
Well done to you both!
And as for the day, wow! best weather ever on the lake too.
Thanks again.
M & A."

Cherry Bay is a stunning little spot. It's great to cruise across the lake to take in the sites.

Some of the awesome groups we have had over the past week.... and some of the awesome things they have said about our charter / crew / service:

"Just wanted to send a quick email to thank you for the best time. Everyone had so much fun and well exceeded any expectations we had. Thank you and the crew so much. It was amazing."
Many thanks,
Alysha

"Yessss - all went well across the weekend. The boat was a certain highlight for all including the stag. Shooting was great fun and surprising how many of us hit the claybird.
Will be recommending to fellow parties thinking of travelling to Taupo for such events!"
Cheers
