A special event organised by Greenpeace Aotearoa and Forest & Bird calling for an end to bottom trawling in the Hauraki Gulf will go ahead at Auckland's Mission Bay today after windy weather meant the event was postponed last weekend.
'Show Your Heart for the Hauraki' culminates in a floating 'ban bottom trawling' banner being deployed and met by a flotilla and over 200 crafts, from kayaks to skiffs, fishing boats and yachts have registered to take part
Bianca Ranson is Forest & Bird's Hauraki Gulf Coordinator
