I am reminded and encouraged [more on encouraged latter] of when I was living in Whangeri and working along with a few others on the building of the Marsden Point Petro Chemical Refinery [1982 to 1986].. anyway the port authorises got the Crane on the dock wrong and this massive bit of equipment as it was being lifted out of a ship from Holland ... the crane broke its anchors and both the crane and the equipment and half the dock went to the bottom hitting the ship on the way and putting a hole in it... Boy did the blame game start....
Any old how how this is encouraging the current and depth of water off the dock at Marsden Point is quite something and maybe a tour could be arranged then a small accidental shoulder in the back and let the seas have their way...
