    Icebreaking in HAWKE’S BAY

    Thursday, 26 March 2026 09:03

    By Dean Clarke

    The Canadian Coast Guard Ship HENRY LARSEN will be icebreaking in the area of HAWKE’S BAY today.

    The Canadian Coast Guard Ship HENRY LARSEN will be icebreaking in the area of HAWKE’S BAY today. Officials are reminding the public that it can be very dangerous to venture onto the ice. Broken and fragmented ice tracks and ridging left behind by passing icebreakers or commercial vessels may not freeze over immediately. This can result in hazardous conditions for ice users. As well,  freshly fallen snow will hide ship tracks. Unsafe ice conditions can persist long after icebreakers have left the area.
