Is it where they have banned any talk of politics or religion, and new members have to have every post chaperoned by a moderator incase they upset the sensibilities of those that can't handle being upset? The same crew where they are discussing the demise of the forum, and are blaming it on Facebook, but overlook the point they are so uptight and constricted by rules, no-one can even take a shit, let alone state an opinion, without fear of being pinged by a moderator. That crew?

If you were in a govt job and had an all expenses paid trip to the BoI, you'd probably milk it for all you could too... That is only 1 of 3 investigations, Police (Criminal), MNZ (no idea what they do) and TAIC (learning points)

That is only 1 of 3 investigations, Police (Criminal), MNZ (no idea what they do) and TAIC (learning points) On the news yesterday one said they intend to get into the investigative quickly and get a result out fast. He estimated the report would be ready yo go public in 18 months
I think the offending boat, alleged if you like but all reports seem blatantly clear if fucked up massively, was once owned by a very prominent NZer who loves speed when afloat hence the 2 big fuck off motors, which when first installed we about as big as you could get.

18 months ? Really ? Great work if you can get it ? At huge salaries ,expenses, no doubt a trip to Boston Whaler factory and outboard manufacturer to investigate. Health /education /housing in disarray but $$ freely available for this nonsense. It should take 18 hours if that. Still 50 % of NZ wanted it this way apparently. Plus legislative investigation as to why passengers weren't wearing lifejackets,fluoro vests, steel capped boots, safety specs and where were the stop/go people along with witches hats. I despair of Guvmit and all their crap.

All reports off the ferry very strongly suggest this one is a wee no brainer, under AP at speed without looking forward.
In which case 18 days would seem excessive.
