The manager and founder of this endeavour

Samira dardour.

Originally from Morocco and raised in Germany my love for diversity, passion for travel, sailing and fine cuisine brought me to Palma and the yachting industry. Based in Palma for most of my yachting career, I have more than 15 years of experience living and working in major yachting hubs across Europe, the Caribbean, USA and NZ. I worked as a deckhand, chief stew and chef on superyachts before becoming a Superyacht agent.

Over those years I learned a lot about yachts, their owners, captains and crew where I made friends for life along the way.  

I love bringing people together so they can benefit from each other which helped me create Our Marine crew placement NZ.

Samira Dardour, yacht crew recruitment agency

My mission is to create a community that helps each other by matching the people who belong together. Our offer of a standard fee for the crew who help crew, giving an inviting incentive other than goodwill to help our neighbours. 

My concept is simple: you refer a friend, if they get the job, I pay you! (T&C apply).

It is not about how many friends you refer to me, it's about the quality you refer, so less is sometimes better.

I now live in Auckland, the city of sails and I am completing a degree in Business and Economics which complements my experience in the yachting world while remaining connected with the yachting community internationally. 

I want to help friends and clients find their new crew to join them for their next adventure.

I know everyone and every boat is different and I give my best endeavour to match crew with appropriate yachts for their individualism and skill set.

Requirements for international yachts and crew entering New Zealand

While New Zealand’s sea borders are currently closed to most foreign Flagged vessels, a number of pleasure craft and super yachts in the Pacific are hoping to enter New Zealand in time for the America’s Cup.

At present, only yachts that have a compelling need to be delivered to a business in New Zealand, including for the purpose of substantial repairs or a refit, may be granted an exemption to enter New Zealand waters with their crew.  Conditions are strict and decisions are made on a case by case basis.

In this article, we review the Covid-19 related restrictions and the requirements to enter New Zealand if you own, operate or work on an international yacht.

Yacht exemptions

The government has adopted a “Covid-19 Public Heath Reponses (Maritime Border) Order 2020” ( Maritime Border Order ) to rule on crew changes and the safe movement of cargo and vessels to and from New Zealand [1] . 

Under the Maritime Border Order, foreign-flagged yachts are not permitted to arrive in New Zealand territorial waters unless they have an exemption. [2] An exemption can be sought from the Director-General of Health (Ministry of Health) if:

  • The yacht has a compelling need to arrive in New Zealand for the purpose of:
  • Re-provisioning and/or refueling;
  • Delivering the yacht to a business; or
  • Carrying out a refit, refurbishment of or a repair to the yacht that is more than minor.

b. The yacht has a compelling need to arrive in New Zealand for humanitarian reasons. 

Based on the above, yachts travelling to New Zealand primarily for leisure purposes are not permitted to enter New Zealand waters. The Ministry of Health also advised that yachts intending to “winter over” (for instance to avoid the hurricane/cyclone season in the Pacific) are unlikely to meet the condition of humanitarian reasons.

Refit, refurbishment and repairs are the main reasons currently considered for an exemption. The Director-General will take into account:

  • The nature and type of work to be undertaken on the yacht;
  • The monetary value of the work being undertaken;
  • The need to support the economic recovery of marine-related industries in New Zealand; and
  • Any other matter considered relevant.

The above may include information regarding: the size of the yacht,  the need for the proposed works, the urgency of the works, whether the work can reasonably be undertaken in the yacht’s Flag State, current location or other location, and the time required to complete the work.

An application will have to provide written evidence of a contract with one or more New Zealand based-companies (subject to the yacht being granted an exemption).  This should include a schedule of intended works/equipment purchased for repair or refitting of the yacht and the estimated cost of repairs.  We understand the Ministry of Health will require a minimum value of the work of NZ$50,000.

Any exemption to enter New Zealand waters must be sought before departing for New Zealand and must be obtained before the yacht arrives in New Zealand, noting it can take up to 20 days for a decision to be issued.

A yacht that has been authorised to enter New Zealand waters may be entered on a Temporary Import Entry in which Customs charges and GST are deferred for two years.

Once the permission for an exemption to arrive in New Zealand (with or without conditions) has been granted to the yacht, any persons onboard must obtain Immigration New Zealand approval.

Crew approval

Only New Zealand citizens and holders of a resident visa are authorised to enter the country.  Anyone else must be coming to New Zealand for a “ critical purpose ” and request prior approval from Immigration.

Persons who will be deemed to have a “critical purpose” include:

  • Critical workers (provided that the request is sought by a New Zealand employer or a supporting agency or immigration professionals);
  • Replacement cargo ship crew; and
  • A vessel’s crew arriving by sea (subject to the yacht having been granted an exemption).

Yacht owners, authorised agents and employers of the crew are the only ones who can submit a request for foreign crew to travel to New Zealand on approved yachts.

Crew must be essential for the operation of the yacht to travel to New Zealand. Other types of crew and passengers are not permitted. To date, we understand that super yacht owners have not been allowed to sail with the crew to New Zealand. Decisions are likely to be made on a case by case basis, depending on the usual operations of the yacht. 

Crew arriving by sea are required to have isolated on the yacht (or in a managed facility, at their cost) for at least 14 days before they can go on shore.  The period of 14 days may include the journey time under certain conditions. Covid-19 tests will have to be carried out in any case. Isolation at anchorage will not be allowed, noting dedicated berths are allocated for this purpose.

Once the isolation period is complete and clearance has been provided by a medical officer of health or health protection officer, the yacht will be free to travel on to the pre-approved and pre-arranged repair or refit provider(s) and the crew will be allowed to stay in New Zealand for the duration of their visas.

Recommendations

The existing exemption for yachts is the result of strong lobbying from the marine industry.  The NZ Marine Industry Association in particular continues to engage in discussions with the government.

The conditions that need to be satisfied in order to be granted an exemption to enter New Zealand waters are limited and will be strictly applied. In all cases, the yacht will not be permitted to arrive unless every person on board also satisfies immigration requirements.

At this time, we understand that up to twelve super yachts have been granted an exemption on the basis of two to three months of work booked in a shipyard, often representing several million New Zealand dollars.

We recommend that any yacht seeking to come in to New Zealand:

  • Defines what substantial work would require the work of a shipyard in New Zealand;
  • Contacts a shipyard for this purpose; and
  • Engages as soon as possible in discussions with the Ministries of Health and Immigration to let them know its intentions and prepare the relevant documents.

If you need assistance with the above or require further details or key contacts, please let us know. We have a dedicated team for this purpose.

[1] The Maritime Border Order came into force on 30 June 2020 and was amended and replaced on 6 September 2020.

[2] Except for the right of “innocent passage” or vessels in distress.

The Mountain cast and crew attend first kiwi release of season in Taranaki

Some very special guests returned to Taranaki Maunga today, and so did some very special new residents.

Cast and crew from The Mountain , the feature length movie filmed on and around Taranaki Maunga, were among the small crowd gathered at the Ngāti Ruanui Stratford Mountain House for the release of eight kiwis.

The Mountain is released nationwide next week.

The kiwi were raised as part of the Taranaki Kōhanga Kiwi at Rotokare project, a partnership between Taranaki Kiwi and Rotokare Scenic Reserve trusts.

The morning ceremony was attended by iwi, along with representatives from the Taranaki Mounga Project, Taranaki Kōhanga Kiwi at Rotokare and invited guests as well as the movie stars and crew.

Speaking at the ceremony, Tane Houston, Pou Atawhai-Taranaki Mounga Project, said the release celebrates something “awesome”.

“For some people, this is their first time attending a kiwi release. It’s a celebration of that glorious feeling and the resurgence of life around our maunga.”

He said the releases are thanks to the work of many volunteers.

“There’s been many hours, staff and volunteers who have contributed to not only this occasion, but the ones before it and the ones that will come.”

The eight kiwi were caught two weeks ago at the reserve using conservation dogs.

Radio transmitters were attached to their legs before being released into Rotokare. They were recaptured a day before their translocation, ready to be placed at their new home.

The release of kiwi was dedicated to Ian Hooper and his whānau, he said.

“I was privileged enough to be invited to their farm where they have this rare, tiny flower in the native bush they have preserved. It was an honour to see the beauty of that bush and that flower.

“As well as celebrating the release of these kiwis, I’d like to celebrate Ian Hooper and his family for what they’ve done to protect our native environment.”

In honour of Ian, one of the kiwis was named after him.

The young stars of The Mountain also had the chance to name a kiwi, with the film’s lead actors, Elizabeth Atkinson, Reuben Francis and Terrence Daniel, choosing the name Kaha.

Reuben, who plays Mallory in the film, says the name means strength.

“We wanted to give the kiwi strength as it goes to its new home on the mountain. It was a very spiritual experience and I feel that we bonded with Kaha.”

Elizabeth, who plays Sam in the movie, says being part of the ceremony was a special moment.

“I had seen a kiwi once in Queenstown but it was dark and I wasn’t that close. Being so close to the kiwi and seeing it in the light was very cool.”

Terrence, who plays Bronco, says the day was amazing.

“It was beautiful to be that close and the maunga looks beautiful too.”

Tane Manukanga from Te Ara Taiao says sharing the day with the cast and crew from the film was special.

“My role is to connect the community with this kaupapa and today our kaupapa was shown to the extended community. It’s about ensuring our tamariki are involved. It was amazing to share this moment with those involved with The Mountain .”

The kiwi release was the first of several scheduled for this year, with 110 kiwi set to be released on Taranaki Maunga.
