‼️A message on behalf..
Good afternoon. On Tuesday this week (26th May) my Seahorse Kontiki got snagged on the little reef just north of Tiakitai Rd, about 400-500 metres offshore. It’s still there and if anyone has a small boat or JetSki and is willing to recover it for me, I’m willing to pay $100 as a recovery reward.
Please message the club if you can help 🙏🏼
