This may be a bit late, however I've come across a reference to this after quickly searching for "nazi gold auckland island" on Google. The website I found no longer is displayed but Google had the page cached so I found this quote about it.

"Rumours of Nazi gold stashed at sea more than 50 years ago have surfaced after a Blenheim man's trip to the Auckland Islands this week. Mr Carey said he has successfully identified two big objects on the seabed near the Auckland Islands. "They didn't bring it all the way from Germany if it was old tin cans," he said, referring to a theory that a German U-boat had stashed gold underwater during World War 2."
