See the Tauranga marine precinct's new travel lift in action putting its first commercial customer, superyacht No Comment, back in the water.

After a few days on blocks being repaired at Tauranga's soon-to-open marine precinct,
superyacht No Comment was transferred back into the water this morning via the new travel lift.

The 325-tonne, 47.5m long yacht was the heaviest vessel to date to use the 350-tonne capacity travel lift, and its first paying commercial customer.

Photographer John Borren was at the precinct to watch the transfer.
