The 60-year-old Lyttelton Harbour Board launch Orari returns to the inner harbour after a general maintenance trip. The Orari is the “rubbish truck” of the Lyttelton waterways. One of her tasks is to collect rubbish in sealed yellow drums from ships visiting the port. The drums are transferred to the quarantine area of Cashin Quay and their contents burned. The Orari also works as a relieving pilot boat, is used for diving work, and sometimes conveys school parties on harbour tours.
