Kaiapoi Coastguard is leading the way in swift water rescue with the launch of their brand new boat, the "Extreme 47 Coastguard" - the first of it's kind in New Zealand.
It'll allow the coastguard to access previously tricky to navigate areas of water, making them ready for any emergency that comes their way.
Volunteer Coastgaurd and unit skipper, Logan Pryce speaks to Jesse.
