In 2008 Sheet Metalcraft Ltd undertook the project of building the MV Sinbad for Real Journeys, final destination Milford Sound. 
The hull and wheel house left our workshop in October 2008 and was taken to Bluff where our staff completed the
steel work and Real Journeys completed the fit out.

The M.V. Sinbad was launched at Bluff Harbor on Wednesday 24th of June 2009.

This photo gallery on the left contains an essay of 82 images of the building of the MV Sinbad from the first frames to the launching.  It takes 4 minutes and 6 seconds to watch from start to finish.

In Queenstown the Pounamu Apartments are on the main road between Frankton and Queenstown.  They are a great place to showcase the crafted handrails and balustrades that Sheet Metalcraft Ltd are able to do.
