Excellent information 👍🏾.

Thanks guys . Any courses

Got this even though I live all the way in the Netherlands. Would’ve done it if I lived in NZ.

My one went off in big seas not in the water

Congratulations ! 👏 🎉

Another couple of suggestions . It’s a good idea to go out with another boat because if you get swamped or an engine fails , you don’t want to be swimming in the middle of the bar hoping the coastguard can find you down there ! It’s a big area to search . Also going out on a 2 metre swell with a marginal forecast is asking for trouble . 3-4 metres is nuts .

How do compare and determine wich bar has the roughest conditions lol its depending on the weather on the day and the changes to the bar , the manukau is the most dangerous, because its narrow with alot of water going in and out of the bar and its shallow , its killed plenty of people even though all boaties know its dangerous and that they should be very careful , 15 foot tall triangular waves sitting there rolling on the out going tide and if your engine fails youll get swept into them and drowned, and when the tides coming in waves leap up at you ramping from off the bottom , waves moving from left to right at the same time , the water there is like if you ran with a bucket of water , wave squeezing each other pushing upwards and falling from undernearh you, try driving a boat over that

0:48 and thats where they went wrong,, always check the up coming weather, never take risks with the weather she'll be right can be she'll be at the bottom of the sea, usually the weather and conditions change after 2 pm , a sunny calm day but by 2 pm it clouds over the wind picks up and waves become closer together and angrier , speaking from experience here, been through alot of trouble on the water as a kid, 1:45 this guy doesn't sound so inteligent he's not even making sense, when he said they were side on to the swell they're not on the ball, dont have side on to the waves, at the least youll get sea sick then you cant concentrate properly to keep yourself safe, the safest option is stay on land your not a fish stay out of the sea

4:51 side on to the waves ya reckon,, sure you know what your doing, lol

SO WE ALL HAVE TO SPEAK MAORI NOW

Been a coastguard member for 30 years. I would rather see our membership fees spent of actual services not a woke rebranding. Even the government has seen the cost of such nonsense and is clamping down on this unnecessary costs, new stationary, new signwriting etc etc. Just stick to the job you and our great volunteers have always done.

Great advert. Hopefully we won't meet, but good to know you are available when we need you. God Bless.

Guy at the begining is a babe

Great video. Looking forward to these changes. Building a better national brand will be good for us all.

Thanks for sharing some great content and video. Just subbed for future vids. Keep up the great work. Tight lines man.

Good one

Thanks for your mihi, and your mahi. An interesting and informative watch.

On Auckland anniversary weekend I seen a charter boat cross the bar just past south spit. I was surfcasting of the northwestern point. In was a northerly and swell wasn’t very big maybe 1.5m. Has the south channel moved closer in?

best result ever!! wtg CNZ....

Excellent video, very clear and informative thank you

Good Video! It's not easy to get information of Kaipara Bar Crossing.

Cheers Ben, one of my favourite fish.
