Three rescued after boat capsizes on Hokianga Bar.
At approximately 11:30am today, a boat capsized on the Hokianga Bar while three men were on their way out to go fishing. The skipper had earlier contacted Hokianga Radio via mobile after experiencing issues with his VHF radio, advising they were heading out.
The vessel hit a wave badly which flooded the outboard motor with seawater, stalling it and leaving them in trouble between the breakers. The skipper immediately called our local Coastguard Hokianga radio operator for assistance, who coincidentally had witnessed the incident.
Coastguard Hokianga President and skipper Jeff Cramp and three other volunteers launched from Opononi at 11:50am, navigating the bar and breaking waves of over three metres. By 12:10pm, the crew located the three men in the water, all wearing lifejackets. Life rings were deployed, and the men were pulled aboard Coastguard Hokianga’s rescue vessel.
"Wearing those lifejackets and communicating with us was instrumental in this incident having a happy ending,” said Jeff. "They had minor cuts and grazes, which we assessed on board, before returning them to shore where an ambulance was waiting to check them over."
This incident serves as a timely reminder of the dangers associated with bar crossings and the importance of preparation and safety measures when heading out on the water.
Bar crossings are inherently risky - we urge all boaties to take every precaution to keep themselves and their crew safe to ensure an enjoyable summer on the water.
