A Friday night ferry sailing from Waiheke to Auckland city became one to remember for crew and passengers when a baby girl was born mid-trip.
An expectant mother was on board the 8pm sailing to Auckland city, but her baby did not want to wait and was born as the Fullers360 vessel motored towards the mainland.
Fullers360 has been operating a reduced free of charge service to Waiheke throughout alert level 4 for essential service staff and as a lifeline service for emergencies for the Waiheke community.
"We would like to congratulate the mother on her new arrival and extend our congratulations to her family," Fullers360 fleet operations manager Megan Watson said.
