So very sad to hear this news. I studied with Wayne in the 1990’s at the NZ Maritime School, and recently spoke to him when he was Master on the Strait Feronia. My thoughts are with his family.

Efforts to save the 58-year-old man were unsuccessful.

This is so tragic. Our thoughts are with Zachary and his family.
