Your Waterway Lodge Host

Roy Crane was born in England, but his extensive world travels and lust for life brought him to New Zealand in 2003.

Roy has owned and managed several businesses and is an experienced commercial helicopter pilot and instructor. His entrepreneurial skills and love of adventure support his passion to provide guests with an unforgettable experience.

Known for his sense of humour and infectious enthusiasm, Roy has flown over and led numerous tours around most of the country.

His wide ranging "try anything" interests, apart from aviation, include adventure racing, rally driving, most water sports, snow skiing, a good book and cooking up a storm in the kitchen.
