NOTICE TO MARINERS.

No. 22 of 1879.

Marine Department,
Wellington, 2nd May, 1879,

THE following Notices to Mariners, received from
the Marine Board at Port Adelaide, and the
Superintendent of Marine Surveys at Calcutta, are
published for general information.
J. BALLANCE.

COMMISSARIAT POINT, SPENCER GULF.

MARINERS are hereby informed that a perch buoy,
painted black, has been moored on a sand-spit between
the two black beacons, Commissariat Point, Spencer
Gulf. Masters of vessels navigating in these waters
without a pilot should keep well in mid-channel, as
the water in many places shoals suddenly.

R. H. FERGUSON,
President, Marine Board.

Marine Board Offices, Port Adelaide,
31st March, 1879.

PORT BROUGHTON, SPENCER GULF.

NOTICE is hereby given that a new channel has
opened out at the entrance to Port Broughton, and
has been marked by two perch buoys; one (painted
black) lies 440 feet south of the red beacon marking
the old entrance, and the other (painted red) lies 310
feet E. N. from the black buoy.

Twenty new cask buoys (painted red) have been
moored along the channel, nearly up to the jetty.
Vessels coming in should leave them on the starboard
hand, and when approaching the entrance should
borrow towards the perch buoys, as by passing either
of these at a distance of 70 or 80 feet they will avoid
a small knoll which lies in mid-channel and has a foot
less water upon it.

By following the above directions, when nearing or
crossing the entrance, not less than 5 feet at low water
will be obtained.

Bearings are magnetic.

President, Marine Board.
