NOTICE TO MARINERS.
No. 19 of 1879.

Marine Department, Wellington, 24th April, 1879.
THE following Notices to Mariners, received from the Colonial Secretary, Cape Town, Cape of Good
Hope, is published for general information.
J. BALLANCE.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Cape of Good Hope, 20th February, 1879.
THE subjoined Notice received from the Secretary to Commodore Sullivan, H.M.S. "Active," is hereby
published for the information of mariners.
J. GORDON SPRIGG, Colonial Secretary.

HYDROGRAPHICAL NOTE.—CAPE OF GOOD HOPE AND WEST COAST OF AFRICA STATION.
H.M.S. "Active," 3rd January, 1879.—No. 2.

Place and Subject of Correction. Position. (Giving latitude and longitude, with angles or bearings and distances.) Admiralty Charts, Nos. Sailing Direc-tions (title and page). Light List (title and page). Tide Tables (page). REMARKS. (To embrace all details regarding the correction, the authority, whether by personal examina-tion, from reliable information, &c.)
Africa: South Coast -West of Durnford Point. Lat. 28° 59′ S., long. 31° 53″ 5′ E. 2089, Africa, South Coast, Sheet VIII. African Pilot for South and East Coasts, p. 88. ... ... A dangerous reef of coralline rock, extend-ing apparently three miles from shore, has been discovered to the westward of Durnford Point. Its south-western edge, which is steep to, lies W. S., six and a quarter miles from the point. The least water obtained in this part at low-water neaps was 12 feet, but the bottom appears very uneven over the reef. As there are no marks on the adjacent shore by which the position may be fixed, and as it does not show except in heavy weather by breakers, vessels should not approach the coast in the vicinity nearer than four miles, nor bring Point Durnford to bear to the eastward of E.N.E., nor stand into less than ten fathoms. An occasional current has been found set-ting to the eastward three or four miles from the shore.

C. R. ROBERTSON, Navigating Officer.

Approved—F. W. Sullivan, Commodore.
