ALTERATION AND ADDITION TO LIGHT AT BUSTARD
HEAD.

AFTER this date, the light on Bustard Head will,
during the fixed light, show red through an arc
of 5°; the outer Rock, off the Head, lying in the
centre of the arc, on a bearing of N. 5° E.
The light will also show red to the westward of
W.N.W., until shut in with the high land at the
back of Point Richards.
Two additional small white lights, placed to the
south-eastward of the Lighthouse, will also be ex-
hibited, which, when in the same plane, and in line,
will point to the outer rock.
When vessels, passing the headland, enter the red
light, they will know that the outer rock is coming into
line with the Lighthouse; when the back light is seen
just clear of and over the nearer of the two small
lights, that they are outside the rock; and when they
again enter the white light, that they are past the
immediate neighbourhood of the danger.
Vessels bound to Port Curtis from the southward,
or working along the coast between Bustard and
Gatcombe Heads, will be clear of the outlying
rocks off Rodd's Peninsula, and of the East Banks at
the entrance to Port Curtis, while Bustard Head
Light is seen as a white light. From an E.S.E.
bearing eastwards, Bustard Head Light will be seen
as a red light, showing a too near approach to the
shore.
In fine weather, when the light can be seen at
that distance, vessels entering Port Curtis from the
southward by the north channel, should be careful
not to open out the Bustard Head fixed light as a
red light, until the Gatcombe Head light shows red,
and is steered for on a W.S.W. bearing. Similarly,
on leaving the port, vessels bound southwards should
not keep away until the Bustard Head fixed light is
changed from red to white.

sight the Green Light in clear weather on a south-
westerly bearing before losing sight of the Cape St.
George Light; vessels from the southward will have
to keep an offing till the light is opened out clear of
the land. To enter the port steer about W.S.W. for
the green light, keeping a good look-out to avoid the
Sullivan Reef, which generally breaks, and should be
passed two cables distant on the port hand.
