A 10m yacht had mechanical issues (blown oil seal I believe) and was unable to return to Mana Marina as there was no wind and they couldn't get into the marina. MR1 was dispatched to tow them back in as a non-member tow after confirming they understood that there would be an charge of $280/hr. They were towed back to the breastworks outside Mana Marina.
