Hunt for unicorn owner

When Ka¯piti Coastguard got a report of “object sited one mile off shore” on a recent Saturday morning they swiftly swung into action. Reports from the beach were of a potential upturned vessel, with an outboard motor. What they found was at least 1.5m long and similarly high. “It was white and it had a colourful tail which was what we thought could have been an outboard motor,” Ka¯piti Coastguard's Pete Woodward said. But the drama ended with laughter: the object was a giant inflatable unicorn. The Coastguard is now keen to find the owner of the unicorn.
