Battery problem/Taking on water – 08/06/2020 – 11:44 to 15:15

A boat at White Is reported a battery problem and taking on water. The call was heard by another boat who located the stricken vessel and advised all was  OK. Whakatane Rescue was tasked to assist and towed the boat back safely to Whakatane. A big thank you to the good samaritan.
