The fate of the 29 people onboard remains in limbo, as officials decide whether to allow them to dock in Napier, or whether medics will be sent either via helicopter or boat, to carry out testing.
It was understood Napier Port does not want the vessel to berth there, with Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield saying there was a possibility the vessel could be sent to Auckland and testing would be conducted there.

The kayakers were at the centre of a joint training exercise for Police, Coastguard and the Hawke’s Bay Surf Life Saving (SLS) Emergency Call-out squad.
Constable Andrew Walker said the annual training exercise gives our teams the opportunity to improve and practice our operating procedures and gives new crew members a chance to work on their skills in a realistic emergency situation.
An incident management team made up of Police Search and Rescue, Coastguard and SLS members ran the search.
A further 25 personnel from the SLS Emergency Call-out squad and Coastguard were on the water around Waimarama in five inflatable rescue boats and the Coastguard rigid hull inflatable Celia Knowles.
Constable Walker said it was the perfect time to remind people of the basic rules they should follow.
- Let someone know where you are going and when you plan to be home.
- Check the marine weather forecast
- Take two waterproof ways to call for help
- Wear your lifejacket
- Avoid alcohol

Bevis, a resident at Ryman’s Anthony Wilding Village, recently received a gentleman’s makeover. The day began at the barbershop where Bevis and his barber Kohl shared plenty of laughs. Next up, a personal stylist helped Bevis select clothes he looked and felt great in. Being pampered isn’t the norm for Bevis but based on his smile, we’re confident he loved every minute.

I thought I'd drop by to let you know this week's episode, Location, Location, Location, is out now.
Just like the first one, it's packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home. It also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.

We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
Give episode 2 a listen and let us know what you think - and I hope you're all in to win that crackin' prize pack!

Right now, she is working on Hastings District Council’s new Te Pōhue water treatment site. That project is part of the council’s Hastings Drinking Water Strategy, which includes upgrading all small community water supplies across the district.
The list of projects that Jury has worked on across Hawke’s Bay and beyond is impressive – she and her digger have helped build airstrips, dams, subdivisions, the Hastings-Napier expressway, and the region’s newest major road, Te Ara Kahikatea.
Her advice to young women who love being outdoors and are deciding on their career options is to think about heavy machinery operation.
“It is fantastic; I love every minute of it. There’s something special about driving over or looking at projects you’ve been involved in and feeling a real level of satisfaction.”
And the winner is Captain. He won the title of cutest penguin at the National Aquarium of New Zealand by public vote.
Votes for Captain, who has one eye, rolled in from as far afield as Vietnam, Turkey, Costa Rica, Estonia, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela.

Votes for Captain, who has one eye, rolled in from as far afield as Vietnam, Turkey, Costa Rica, Estonia, Trinidad and Tobago, and Venezuela.
Captain lives in the Napier aquarium’s rehabilitation centre after losing his right eye in an altercation with another sea bird.
Because of this he must be fed from his left side and wouldn’t survive in his natural habitat in the wild.
His girlfriend is Flip (who only has one flipper after being caught in fishing line) and they share a burrow..
