Light to be installed in popular boat-launching bay after fisherman's death

There were 30 moorings in Okiwi Bay at present, 28 of which were located within 350m of the bay's boat jetty.
Marlborough Harbourmaster Luke Grogan said after talking with residents, his team decided that the bay would be safer with a navigation aid in the water, so ordered a light.
The light, attached to a buoy, would be in place by next summer and help illuminate Okiwi Bay’s moorings at night.

Moorings and the boats moored to them did not need to display a light at night unless their resource consent stated otherwise, but boats that were temporarily anchored did.
