Skipper fined $5200


Recommended Posts

Apparently doing 27 knots, but not keeping a good look out near Waiheke.

Wrote off another fizz boat worth 55K.

 

Well done MaritimeNZ on policing the rules!

Seriously!!! $5200 is all this idiot gets???

 

We confiscate boats for undersized fish and over quota recreational fishing.

 

But this guy gets fek all???

 

guy should have lost the boat at the very least.

Mates of my nephew were the ones hit

They were extremely lucking not to be hurt or killed

50k fine wouldn’t have been out of order
