Coastguard needs $180,000 to buy boat
- 9 Mar 2010
- Newswire.co.nz
- WELLINGTON Coastguard needs $180,000 for a new boat and is looking for donations. The Coastguard’s rigid hull inflatable boat, Phoenix, is being replaced with a new $300,000 model, and 40 per cent of the funding has already been raised. President, Terry Sampson says finding the money is one of his last major duties before stepping down this year. Mr Sampson says Phoenix is 20 years old, and it’s time for the vessel to be replaced because it has only about five years life left in the role.
