An Irishman and a Frenchman who took photos of themselves raiding booze from a floating Blenheim restaurant possibly regret leaving the camera behind.
David Farrell, 26, of Ireland, and Nicholas Moinet, 24, of France, were among a group of travelling vineyard workers who broke into River Queen last month.
They drank three bottles of spirits and took more than 40 bottles of beer, as well as a number of photos, the Marlborough Express reported.
They left the boat and continued drinking at a nearby campground, but left the camera behind and police later identified them.
On Monday, in Blenheim District Court they were each fined $300 and ordered to pay the restaurant's owners $240 for damage they caused.
