    A luxury launch is no longer beached near the entrance to Auckland's Tamaki River

    A luxury launch is no longer beached near the entrance to Auckland's Tamaki River


    The 15.5 metre Riviera craft ran on to rocks at Achilles Point six days ago.

    Two people needed to be rescued, but nobody was injured.

    Holes in the launch were patched and it was pulled off the rocks at high tide yesterday, and towed to Half Moon Bay marina.

    Salvage master Nick Lewis acknowledges there had been a clear navigational error.

    The boat has been handed over to an insurance company for assessment.
