Due to rain and high seas on Monday the Miss Mataroa wasn’t sunk as planned – which ‘gave them more time’ to carry out other ‘extra’ operations like remove the 500 litres of lube oil, along with about 8000 litres of oily water still on board her. Uh yeah. Probably a good thing they removed that, but I’m no expert.
Certainly this whole event is the main topic of conversation about town and has been making the newspaper’s frontpage for the past days and keeping the letters to the editor well stocked. Apparently Greenpeace has been called in, and on today’s frontpage a protestor was pictured waving a placard that said “Whale sanctuary – Yeah right”. Only in Raro could they use a beer slogan to push environmental concerns…
