This gripping series follows police officers patrolling New Zealand's 15,000-kilometer shoreline, facing challenges from drug busts to rescuing sinking vessels. The narrative offers a unique perspective on officers risking their lives in treacherous conditions. Safety organizations and Coastguard Volunteers conduct sea rescues, aid injured passengers, and prevent maritime disasters. With a special season based in Australia, the series offers a particular insight on the two nations who cannot keep out of water – both for fun and for crime.
