President of the Raglan Coastguard Wally Hawken said a salvage company finished removing the wreck from the harbour late last night and it was now in a secure compound waiting for investigators to assess it.
The police are investigating the cause of the crash. The Transport Accident Investigation Commission said it has been notified but has not opened an investigation yet.
