Maritime Union calls for action on Cook Strait ferries

The Mar­itime Union says that it has had enough of cow­boy tac­tics on the Cook Strait after fur­ther rev­e­la­tions of anoth­er poten­tial fer­ry
ground­ing that was nar­row­ly avoid­ed.

The Union is con­cerned about reports the fer­ry ‘San­ta Regi­na’ was on auto pilot in the Tory Chan­nel on June 9 in breach of Mar­itime Safe­ty Author­i­ty rules.
