A wedding party at a Marlborough Sounds resort rescued two men injured in a boat crash at the weekend, using kayaks to reach the sinking boat.
Bride Robyn McLaughlin, of Wellington, said her bridal party had “just put their face masks on” when they heard a loud bang near The Portage Hotel in the Kenepuru Sound, about 11pm on Friday.
“We had heard the boat start up in the bay, and I remember thinking, ‘I hope that’s not the boys, at that time of night’. And then we heard the crash,” she said.
