NZ SPECIAL
A long term partnership F
or a company that hauls freight up and down the length of New Zealand, meeting the Cook Strait ferry timetable is a key part of operations. That’s why reliability is high up in the priorities behind of Eddie Tuhakaraina’s choice of Mack. “It’s a relay,” says Tuhakaraina, whose Auckland-based Super-Liner is on the road around the clock six days per week. “I’m a 24-hour truck that runs on the inter-island ferry timetable and it’s very unforgiving if I break down. I work in conjunction with an owner driver in the South Island and to make it work we have to meet the ferry. My point of delivery sails out into the Cook Strait,” he laughs.
