The Whanganui is the longest navigable river in New Zealand. It is about 290km long and is navigable for more than 200km, although it is not easily navigated because of more than 200 rapids in this stretch alone.

(The difficulty of navigating the braided rivers of Canterbury in the South Island of New Zealand was the inspiration for the invention of the jet boat.)
