Taranaki SLS Rescue Squad
Members of Taranaki s Surf Lifesaving rescue squad were asked by police to assist two men whose boat overturned between New Plymouth and Oakura on New Year s Day.
Rescuing two men who were hanging on to their overturned boat in the sea was the most dramatic save in a busy week for Taranaki surf lifesavers. Todd Energy Taranaki SLS Rescue Squad manager Dave Bentley said the 12-member team of volunteers had carried out three rescues since December 29. The most recent call-out was on Saturday afternoon, when the squad assisted the police in a successful search and water rescue for a person who was reported missing around the Nga Motu/Sugarloaf Islands off Back Beach in New Plymouth.
