Coastwatch follows Fishery Officers from The Ministry for Primary Industries, NZ Airforce and Navy personnel, and the Maritime Police. Greenstone gets up close and personal to find out what’s involved in patrolling and enforcing the law that protects our coastlines, water-ways and billion dollar Kai-moana industries.
We also follow the men and women volunteering for Northland Regions Coastguard, and the Northland Electricity Rescue Helicopter. Tasked with responding to mayday calls, medical emergencies, on-water breakdowns and accidents, they keep our waterways, and those on them, safe. The Maritime Police, along with the Police National Dive Squad, are also on high alert for any maritime emergencies.

We need to take action now to ensure that future generations can continue to enjoy the beauty of our oceans.

We need to have WAY harsher charges to fix it

[@2011blueman]

They'll keep poaching because all you're doing is occasionally giving them small fines. If you want to stop the abalone poaching you need to start arresting them. In California if you get caught poaching abalone a second time the fines are $10,000-$15,000 and probation or jail time. The ones caught poaching for the black market get 12-36 months in prison and fined.

The first guy admitted he was in the wrong and showed respect to the officer. It may be why the officer gave him a warning, but I can't say for sure. What I am saying for sure is that it's refreshing to see some respect between a civilian and a police officer.

[@DaveBooth-qs7sw]

Fines are too small & definitely aren’t a deterrent to stop their thieves

[@shauno7582]

Ah us Aussies are so much the same but so different to you Kiwis.. Powa is called abalone here in Oz.

[@frwansie]

To a common hunter gatherer person the ocean and the bush is a cupboard used to feed the people especially our kaumatua when caught without a permit and over the quota suggest black market

[@donnap3495]

@jeremy560320 thanks for the info. Would not have thought that they were abalone. Very interesting. Closet water to me is lake Ontario, definitely no abalone here. Have a great day, peace and love from Canada ✌

Over limit, under size, don’t allow them get away with it.

[@tombown9960]

It’s always the same they go every day with knowledge that they won’t always be stopped, take chance it’s a business.
