No. 14 of 1869.
Marine Department,
Wellington, 10th June, 1869.
THE following announcement of an alteration on
Cape Reciffe Light, Algoa Bay, received from
the Harbourmaster, Port Elizabeth, Cape Colony, is
published for general information.
JAMES M. BALFOUR,
Colonial Marine Engineer.

NOTICE to MARINERS.

Change in Cape Reciffe Light to warn Ships of too
near an approach to the Roman Rock in Algoa Bay.
On and after the 1st December, 1868, a ray of red
light will be shown from the Cape Reciffe Light-
house, between a N. 39° E. bearing and the shore
northwards from the Lighthouse.
Bearings are Magnetic.

DIRECTIONS.

Vessels bound for Algoa Bay, after passing Cape
Reciffe, should not open the red light at the Cape
until the Harbour light upon the hill is seen (which
will first show red on a N.W. bearing, and lead nine-
tenths of a mile eastward of the Roman, where a
course for the anchorage may be shaped with safety).
As the Hill light cannot be seen from the Roman
Rock, a ship is in safety so long as the light can be
seen; but as its southern extreme of visibility leads
only two cables north of the rock, it is recommended
that a course for the anchorage should not be shaped
until the region of the red light is passed, and the
Hill light shows white on a N.W. by W. bearing.
In beating in or out of the anchorage, the opening
of the red light at either of the lighthouses will be a
signal for vessels to tack when near the vicinity of
the Roman Rock.
