Thread: Firearms to Stewart island

I gave one of their employees a stern telling off one morning, after watching him thrown my rifle in its bag into an empty steel container from about 3m away.

Guess he didnt realise the contents were worth many thousands and constructed partly of glass.

Ouch.... would have done the same! Odd it went in a tub as usually they hand carry them on and they go up the front ontop of the life jackets

See they do care it’s to stop the panic when the boat starts sinking

Hey @223nut was told when I went by the friendly staff at Bluff that next time i came that yes i would need lockable hard case for the firearms to come on the ferry. They were all good and nice to deal with shit website though but gave em a call when I was sorting tickets and they had me sorted right quick. Don’t see it as a big deal really but good on you for giving us all a heads up

I would have thrown the guy overboard...

At least in my mind, I would have.
