Boat on the rocks
PA Wellington A 12-metre fishing launch motored on to rocks on Wellington Harbour early yesterday morning after the skipper locked himself out of his wheelhouse, the police said.
It was lucky the sea was calm and the tide low, since the launch was able to be floated off the rocks relatively undamaged soon after daybreak, said the police.
