Here are some tips to make sure you and your loved ones are well prepared and stay safe:
1. Check the marine weather forecast before you go out, it could save your life! 58% of boaties already check it. We want the other 42% to make it a habit. MetService New Zealand's Marine App makes it easy.
2. Tests your life jackets. Pull hard on the straps and see if any of them stretch or rip. Check all over for any existing tears in the straps and any cuts or punctures in the life jacket. If yes, do not use the life jacket, dispose of it, and replace it. Always check if it floats before putting them on. Keep in mind kapok life jackets should not be used as they can absorb water and sink, their cotton straps also easily rip! Burn them or bin them, but whatever you do - don't use or resell them.
3. For this year's Safer Boating Week, boaties are being reminded to “Prep, Check, Know” - prepare your boat, check your gear and know the rules before going on the water.
Let's put in the time and effort to make sure there are NO water related accidents or deaths this Labour Day long-weekend! Don't forget to look out for each other and report any concerns you have to local authorities.

Pest control may be used to combat the growing rabbit population in Christchurch's red zone.
Land Information New Zealand is investigating rabbit and rodent numbers in the red zone after neighbouring communities raised concerns about a perceived explosion in the rabbit population.
Hundreds of Kiwis have been attacked by magpies since they were first introduced to New Zealand from Australia in the 1860s.
Each spring, aggressive male magpies defend their nests by swooping down and attacking pedestrians and cyclists.
