Stern Section of Rena almost Completely Submerged
Most of the stern section of the MV Rena has slipped off the Astrolabe Reef with 75 per cent now below the water’s surface. Visit the updated photo album for pictures of this development.
Due to rough seas, removal of containers from the bow section of the Rena was not resumed until yesterday, the first time since it broke apart 10 days ago. In the mean time response teams are at the ready to respond to debris washing ashore and oil leaks.More information and regular updates can be found at the Maritime New Zealand website.
