As the bar is constantly shifting, it is the intention
of the Port Officer to erect another Signal Staff on
the North Spit, so that one will be always facing the
channel. A moveable pole will be placed in a line
with the signal staff, shewing the fairway, on which
will be hoisted the following warning signals :-
A red and white pendant, if the current is sweep-
ing to the Northward across the bar;
A square yellow flag, should there be a strong set
to the Southward.
At night a red light will be exhibited on the
Signal mast.
The Masters of vessels, arriving off the bar, are
requested to signal at the fore, by Marryatt's code,
their draught of water. A pilot can seldom cross
the bar; vessels must therefore, of necessity, be con-
ducted into port by means of the signals above given.

Pilot Signals for West Coast, Province of Canterbury.

1. Ball and Red Flag at mast-head—high water,
   take the bar.
2. Ball and Blue Flag half-mast—half-flood, wait for
   tide; when the bar may safely be attempted
   at half-flood the Red Flag will be at mast-
   head.
3. Ball upon lower mast-cap with White Flag—ebb
   tide, bar dangerous.
4. No Signal—do not attempt to take the bar.
5. Arm pointing to the right hand entering from
   seaward—more to the South.
6. Arm pointing to the left hand entering from sea-
   ward—more to the North.
7. Arm up and down with signal mast—as you go.
8. When more than one vessel is crossing the bar,
   the foremost vessel will be piloted by the
   signals, the others following in her wake.
