Antigua Boat Sheds

The Antigua Boat Sheds in Christchurch, New Zealand is an historic building on the banks of the Avon River. It is possibly the only 19th-century example of a commercial boat shed situated on a river in New Zealand. It has been used as a boat shed continuously since its completion in 1882. Geography The sheds are named after Antigua Street and the Antigua Bridge, which is today the northern terminus of Antigua Street; although until 1904, Antigua Street extended as far north as Armagh Street. The boat sheds are right next to the northern end of the Antigua Bridge and opposite Christchurch Hospital. History The sheds were built between 1882 and 1883 by two Lyttelton boat builders Albert Shaw and J.T. Tidd. They launched their first boat on 28 July 1882. Samuel Anstey took over the boat sheds in 1896 and introduced photographic services from within the boat sheds. On 14 May 1907 a fire destroyed half of the Antigua Boat Sheds along with around half the boats. The eastern end was replaced by a new two-storey section. The business was taken over by Maurice and Diane Phipps in 1978. In 1986, they sold the business to their daughter and son-in-law, Mike and Sally Jones, and later they sold them the building, too. As of 2017, the Jones' are still the proprietors of the business. The building survived the 2010 and 2011 Christchurch earthquakes due to recent renovation and strengthening work. Heritage registration The building was classified as a "Category II" historic place by Heritage New Zealand on 10 September 2004 with registration number 1825. It was upgraded to "Category I" on 19 February 2010. See also List of oldest buildings in Christchurch References
Hikitia

Hikitia is a self-propelled floating steam crane in Wellington Harbour, New Zealand. She is thought to be the only working steam crane of her type in the world. She is also the sister ship to the Rapaki, formerly of the Port of Lyttelton, which was put on display at the New Zealand Maritime Museum after being taken out of service, and then scrapped in January 2019. Some parts from Rapaki were given to Hikitia. Delivery voyage The Hikitia was built by Fleming & Ferguson of Paisley, Scotland. After completing trials, the vessel left Greenock on 29 September 1926. The delivery voyage took 82 days, travelling via the Panama Canal to reach New Zealand. The vessel travelled with the crane fully erected, and arrived in Wellington Harbour on 21 December 1926. Engines Twin screws are driven by surface-condensing direct-drive compound engines which were supplied with steam by a coal-fired Scotch boiler with two furnaces. A similar but oil-fired boiler replaced the original boiler in 1963. In 1980 this was also removed and the present two locally made small modern package boilers were installed. These new boilers produce less steam than the original ones. Crane The hull of the vessel was built by Fleming and Ferguson and the crane was built by Sir William Arrol & Co. of Glasgow. The crane alone weighs 310 tonnes, and was built to lift 80 tonnes. However, while dismantling the wreck of TEV Wahine it is thought that she lifted 140 tonnes. In 2004, she lifted 100 tonnes to maintain her lifting licence of 80 tonnes. In 2009, Hikitia lifted a 22 tonne ice plant in Lyttelton. Refurbishment Hikitia travelled to Lyttelton in June 2009 for hull, tail shaft and various other underwater repairs. While in Lyttelton, she moved an ice plant between wharves to repay part of her refurbishment at the port's dry dock. The venture south was the ship's first time out of Wellington since 1926. Incidents There have been two deaths resulting from people climbing the crane and jumping into Wellington Harbour, one in 2015, and another in 2024. The owners of the Hikitia said they had reviewed safety along with the Wellington City Council after the 2015 fatality. Video cameras and warning signs had been placed on the vessel.

Team New Zealand

Das Team New Zealand ist eine neuseeländische Segelsportmannschaft. Das Team New Zealand, seit 2006 nach dem Hauptsponsor Emirates Team New Zealand genannt, gewann 1995 im vierten Anlauf gegen Young America in San Diego mit 5:0 den America’s Cup und verteidigte ihn 2000 in Auckland mit 5:0 gegen Luna Rossa aus Italien. Doch bereits kurz nach der Verteidigung verließen die Schlüsselfiguren Russell Coutts und Brad Butterworth das Team und wechselten zum Konkurrenten Alinghi, wodurch das Team zusammenbrach und weitere Segler das Team verließen. Neuer Skipper wurde im Jahr 2000 der Neuseeländer Dean Barker, der seit 1995 Mitglied des Teams war. 2003 verlor das Team beim America’s Cup in Auckland mit 0:5 gegen Alinghi. Der damalige Hauptsponsor SAP zog sich danach zurück. Erst nachdem die neuseeländische Regierung dem Team Fördermittel zusicherte, konnte es am 32. America’s Cup 2007 in Valencia teilnehmen, wo es im Finale erneut mit 2:5 gegen Alinghi verlor. Mitte Februar 2009 gewann Emirates Team New Zealand die von Louis Vuitton in Auckland veranstaltete Pacific Series gegen Team Alinghi. Im September 2013 verlor Emirates Team New Zealand den über 19 Regatten ausgetragenen 34. America’s Cup in San Francisco gegen Oracle Team USA. Den folgenden 35. America’s Cup gewann es unter dem neuen Skipper Glenn Ashby und mit Olympiasieger Peter Burling als Steuermann mit 7:1 gegen den Titelverteidiger. Die Entscheidung zum dritten Cupgewinn fiel am 26. Juni 2017 im Großen Sund der Bermuda-Inseln. Im letzten Rennen dominierte das neuseeländische Boot Aotearoa die Gegner deutlich. Am 17. März 2021 gewann das Emirates Team New Zealand mit 7:3 Siegen der Wettfahrten das Finale des 36. America’s Cup gegen das italienische Team Luna Rossa. Den 37. America’s Cup gewann Team New Zealand am 19. Oktober 2024 mit 7:2 Siegen gegen das Team Ineos Britannia unter Skipper Sir Ben Ainslie.

Manfeild Circuit Chris Amon

Der Manfeild Circuit Chris Amon, ehemals Manfeild Autocourse, ist eine Motorsport-Rennstrecke im neuseeländischen Feilding, etwa 130 km nordöstlich der Hauptstadt Wellington. Die Strecke wurde 1973 als zweite Strecke auf der neuseeländischen Nordinsel erbaut und 1990 erweitert, um internationalen Standards zu entsprechen. Geschichte Der Circuit Chris Amon wurde 1973 vom Manawatu Car Club Incorporated als Manfeild Autocourse unter Mithilfe des neuseeländischen Formel-1-Fahrers Chris Amon errichtet und eingeweiht. Anfangs hatte er eine Länge von 3.033 Metern. Im Jahr 1990 kaufte der Automobilclub Land hinzu und erweiterte die Strecke auf 4,511 km, die in der Folge unter anderem von der FIM für Motorradrennen homologiert wurde.

Hornby High School

Hornby High School is a state coeducational secondary school located in the western Christchurch, New Zealand suburb of Hornby. It caters for approximately 1,035 students from Years 7 to 13 (ages 10 to 18). History The school opened in February 1975 to serve the growing Hornby area. The permanent classroom blocks were supposed to be ready for the first intake of 240 Form 3 (now Year 9) students, but delays within the Treasury and Ministry of Works saw the completion date pushed back to early 1976. As a temporary solution, the Canterbury Education Board constructed twelve CEBUS relocatable classroom blocks at the eastern end of the school site. Most of the CEBUS classrooms are still present at the school, alongside the permanent S68 classroom blocks typical of 1970s-built New Zealand state secondary schools. Originally a Year 9 to 13 secondary school, the school added Years 7 and 8 in January 2014 following the closure of nearby Branston Intermediate School. Enrolment As of March 2026, Hornby High School has roll of 1,035 students, of which 232 (22.4%) identify as Māori. As of 2026, the school has an Equity Index of 489, placing it amongst schools whose students have above average socioeconomic barriers to achievement (roughly equivalent to deciles 2 and 3 under the former socio-economic decile system).

Horton Park, Blenheim

Horton Park is a cricket ground in Blenheim, Marlborough, New Zealand. The ground is on Redwood Street, on the southern edge of Blenheim's central business district. The reserve, formerly known as the Domain, was named Horton Park in 1907 after Thomas Horton, the local who had ensured the use of the land as a recreational reserve in the late 19th century. The Marlborough cricket team moved its home ground to Horton Park in late 1919 after the nearby Wairau club's ground was sold for development. The first club match there took place on 22 November 1919. Marlborough played for the first time there a month later, a match against the Thorndon club from Wellington. Horton Park held its first first-class match in December 1972 when Central Districts played Northern Districts in the 1972/73 Plunket Shield. Over the following thirty years, Central Districts played nine further first-class matches there, the last of which came against Auckland in the 2002/03 State Championship. The first List A match held there came when Central Districts played Otago in the 1977/78 Gillette Cup. Two further List A matches have been played there, with Central Districts playing Northern Districts in the 1980/81 and 1993/94 Shell Cup. The ground is the headquarters and home ground of the Marlborough Cricket Association.
