MARINE BOARD.
Notice to Mariners.

CAPTAIN CELLEM, of the s. s. "Queen" reports
having grazed on a rock hitherto unknown in
the Channel, between the East Cape Island and the
main.

The following is an extract from his report:—"The
rock is about one cable's length west from the middle
of the island, and had 12 feet water on it. I grazed
the same at 1 a.m., on the 25th May, in the
s.s. "Queen," on her last passage from Auckland."
Captain Cellem's report, and also that of the master
of the s.s. "Beautiful Star," which vessel recently
struck on a rock north of the East Cape, tends to
show that the whole locality is dangerous.
The Board, therefore, would caution masters of
vessels against making use of the channel in ques-
tion.

Master Warden.
