A man was rescued after intentionally jumping from a Waiheke ferry heading to Auckland.
Fullers360 initiated a person-overboard procedure, and successfully recovered the passenger in low-visibility conditions.
The man was airlifted to Auckland City Hospital in a serious condition; no police investigation.
An Auckland ferry company said an emergency incident yesterday in which a man jumped from a Waiheke ferry “was out of our reasonable control”.
Police have opted not to launch an investigation into the case, referring requests for further comment to ambulance services.
The man was pulled from the water after going overboard from an Auckland-bound vessel on Tuesday morning after he intentionally jumped over the side, Fullers360 confirmed.
The company said the passenger was successfully rescued after sparking an emergency response.
Fullers360 said: “Our crew immediately initiated standard person-overboard procedure, and search and rescue operations were launched.
“Thanks to the swift response of our crew in low visibility conditions, the passenger was recovered and brought safely back on board the vessel.”
The company said this was testament to the “robust training procedures we have in place”.
“That said, we are extremely proud of our crew given the circumstances.”
Hato Hone St John said an ambulance and helicopter responded, and the patient was airlifted to Auckland City Hospital in a serious condition.
The incident caused the ferry to circle back to Waiheke Island, where police and ambulance staff quickly boarded the ship, and passengers were moved to a different boat.
A Coastguard spokesperson said they were aware of the situation but not involved in the rescue, and a police vessel had attended the emergency.

A passenger said there appeared to be a degree of difficulty in getting the man back onboard the packed ferry.
“[A] member of the staff yelled out, ‘Man overboard’,” the passenger said.
“We quickly slowed and circled two lifebelts with lights thrown into the water.”
