Two Waikato men left clinging to a chilly bin after they were thrown out of their boat in rough conditions on the Firth of Thames have praised police for their help.
Zak Grammer and Jordan Ishigaki told the Police Ten One magazine that despite checking the conditions on February 10, describing them as "flat as a pancake", they were shocked that within an hour of setting off they'd be turfed into the water.
