Looks like a major fire. I hope no-one got hurt. I seem to remember a lot of timber on the dock at Tauranga. Did that get burnt?

The fire is well away from the cruise ships berth. For those who know the area it is on the opposite side of the port on the Tauranga side , near where the harbour bridge comes into the City.As far as I know , the port has closed down and the webcams are not working.
