   other than a duly licensed Pilot, if such shall
   have offered his services, shall forfeit double the
   amount of pilotage.

5. The Master of any vessel requiring a
   Pilot to conduct her to sea must make an ap-
   plication at the Harbour Master's office, 24

6. The rate of pilotage into or out of Port
   Victoria, from or to the distance of one league

   wards or outwards, and one penny per ton
   upon each occasion that a vessel is shifted from
   one part of the harbour to another.

7. Pilots are not bound to conduct any vessel
   to sea until payment of the pilotage has been
   satisfactorily secured.

8. Pilots on being appointed to outward-
   bound vessels, before taking charge, are to as-

   are sufficiently manned, and, in a proper state
   for working as regards masts, rigging, sails
   and anchors, and boats.

   at the rate of one pound per day for every day
   such Pilot may be detained on board such vessel,
   in addition to the regular pilotage. And the
   Pilot shall not be compelled to conduct such
   vessel to sea until such additional payment and
   pilotage shall have been paid or satisfactorily
   secured.
