    A tugboat is on its way to rescue an oil and chemical tanker stuck off the coast of Stewart Island


    The 'Golden Mind' got into steering difficulties west of the island on Wednesday, and the ship and crew have remained there since.

    Maritime NZ says the current plan is to tow the vessel to Timaru later today.

    The crew are all safe and there have been no distress calls.
