McCully's Kites
Ray & Rosemary McCully welcome you to their world of kiting.
We are a retired married couple living in Rotorua, New
Zealand.
Our main interests are/were kite making (not for sale) and flying, contract bridge until 2020, and travel to NZ kite events and overseas kite festivals. Between Oct 2016 and Dec 2021 we explored NZ bike trails on our E-bikes.
This website only represents a small portion of both our kites and our kiting activity in the last 24 years when digital photos became available.
Ray was secretary/treasurer of the New Zealand Kitefliers Association (NZKA) for 19 years until 2024 and now Ray & Rosemary are both Life Members. Ray also plays croquet and table tennis.

Rosemary's latest creation was a picture and an
idea 25yrs ago. In 2025 it finally became a light
wind kite.
