CHIEF MARINE BOARD.

General Post Office, Auckland,
21st August, 1863.

THE following notice, received from the Chief Marine Board, is published for general information.

READER GILSON WOOD.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.

Report made by Capt. Gibson, S. Ship Auckland, of a rock said to exist near Napier, Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand, not laid down in the Admiralty Charts.

11th August, 1863. 7.45, weighed; 8 set on full speed and rounded Ahuriri Bluff; 8.20 a.m., ship heading S.E. by E. grazed a rock without stopping her headway, immediately stopped the engines, closed the valves in the water-tight bulkheads, and sounded each compartment; depth of water alongside, 9 fathoms; tide, three-quarters ebb; ship’s draught forward, 11ft., aft 12ft. 6ins.; compass bearing, taken immediately after striking, North-eastern extreme of Ahuriri Bluff, West; Cape Kidnappers S.E., having no deviation with the ship heading S.E. by E. I can confidently state the bearings to be correct.

8.30 a.m., finding the ship making no water, proceeded at half speed, hand lead kept constantly going, and pump wells sounded half-hourly.

By order of the Board,

CHAS. SHARP,
Chief Marine Board Office,
Wellington, 13th August, 1863.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
