The fishing vessel Galatea II coming back from her rendezvous with FV Aukaha offshore from Greymouth today. Aukaha can be seen in the background in each of these images.

The Nelson-based fishing vessel Aukaha appeared off the coast of Greymouth this morning. They launched an inflatable craft which headed toward the river with the obvious intention of coming into the port. I don't know the reason on this occasion but boats offshore have done this in the past when a crew member has required medical attention. Conditions on the bar were not good and the inflatable turned back and was lifted back on board. Instead a local fishing vessel Galatea II went out and met with Aukaha. These pics are not brilliant as they were shot from a long distance in rain and fog but they can still tell the story.
