Removal of bird scarer on moored vessel

Received a call from the Wellington Harbour Master asking if we could assist them to remove/disable a bird scarer on a moored boat in Onepoto Harbour. The electronic scarer was making a lot of noise on a still night and the local residents asked noise control to get it turned off. 

We took the Harbour Master and a Noise Control officer out to the vessel to disable it, with the owner's permission.

No birds were harmed in the operation, but several were found roosting on the vessel while the device was active :)
