    • Managing winter workload with Porirua 20
      • Every year, throughout winter, we face an increased demand on our frontline emergency ambulance service. While our normal resources are out and about, to help mitigate this pressure and ensure we can continue to provide the best possible care, we also have Porirua 20. This vehicle is part of a project called Mahi Ngātahi, a term used to describe the unity of people working towards a specific goal or the implementation of a task.

      • Operation Details Date/Time:  Thu, 13/07/2017 - 12:15 - 15:00 Operation Type:  CG Operation (good samaritan) People Assisted:  3 Total Volunteer Hours:  16 Day 2 of a major southerly storm in Wellington took it's toll on vessels moored in the channel. We initially received a callout from Police to assist a 15m catamaran who's mooring lines had broken in the main channel. Police ended up putting their own small boat in the water and assisted him. Coastguard Mana then continued on and assessed other moored vessels, finding 2 with broken bow lines. One large launch had a secondary line that was holding the vessel on the mooring, but it was very small so we added a new line to it to hold in the 50kt+ wind gusts.
