Notice to Mariners, No. 36 of 1884.

Marine Department,
Wellington, N.Z., 22nd August, 1884.

THE following Notices to Mariners, received from the Hydrographer to the Admiralty, London, are published for general information.

G. B. MORRIS.

AUSTRALIA.—CORAL SEA.

(1.) Islets between Lihou Reefs and Tregrosse Islets.

INFORMATION has been received from Captain Dale, H.M.S. “Diamond,” December, 1883, of the existence of four islets lying between Lihou Reefs and Tregrosse Islets.

Of this group (Diamond Islets), Central and East Islets, each about one mile in diameter, were seen from the deck of the “Diamond;” the others from the masthead. The islets have broad sandy beaches, and are thickly covered with low trees and bush. Their approximate positions are as follow: Central Islet, lat. 17° 26′ S., long. 151° E.; East Islet, lat. 17° 25′ S., long. 151° 7′ E.; North-west Islet, lat. 17° 23′ S., long. 150° 54′ E.; South-west Islet, lat. 17° 35′ S., long. 150° 55′ E.

The “Diamond” also passed over a shoal, in approximately lat. 17° 22′ S., long. 151° 5′ E.

(2.) Particulars of Marion Reef.

The following information on Marion (Paget) Reef has been published by the German Government:—

Marion Reef, about 110 miles southward of Lihou Reef: The eastern extreme is in lat. 19° 3′ S., long. 152° 26′ E., extending thence in a W.N.W. direction for a distance of about eight miles, and to the southward for about five miles, then apparently trending to the westward.

From this, in connection with the original report by Mr. Paget, master of the schooner “Marion Renny,” in 1868, it is assumed the reef extends (decreasing gradually in breadth) to its western extreme, in about lat. 19° 10′ S., long. 152° E. The western limit must, however, be considered undefined.

In December, 1883, H.M.S. “Diamond” passed about ten miles eastward of the above position of Marion Reef without sighting it, and no bottom was obtained with 130 fathoms of line.

NOTE.—The existence of these islets and reefs, and the possible existence of others, within the western margin of the “Outer Route,” points to the desirability of vessels navigating this part of the Coral Sea keeping eastward of Lihou, Frederick, and Kenn Reefs.

By command of their Lordships.

FREDK. J. EVANS,
Hydrographer.

Hydrographic Office, Admiralty, London,
28th April, 1884.

Notice to Mariners, No. 37 of 1884.

PORT WAITAPU, MASSACRE BAY.

Marine Department,
Wellington, N.Z., 25th August, 1884.

NOTICE is hereby given that on and after the 10th September, 1884, leading lights will be established at the Port of Waitapu.

To enter the river the two white lights on the Waitapu Hill should be kept in one on about S.S.E. bearing, until the two green lights above the wharf are brought in one; then steer on that course as far up as the wharf.

The black beacons should be kept on the port hand going in, and the red beacons on the starboard hand.

G. B. MORRIS.

Notice to Mariners, No. 38 of 1884.

LIGHT ON KAIPARA HEADS, WEST COAST OF NORTH ISLAND.

Marine Department,
Wellington, N.Z., 26th August, 1884.

NOTICE is hereby given that a lighthouse is in course of erection at Kaipara Heads, and it is anticipated that the light will be ready for exhibition about the month of December next.

The following is a description of the light that will be exhibited:—

The lighthouse is situated on the North Head of Kaipara Harbour, on the west coast of the North Island. The light will be a second-order flashing white light, and will show a flash every ten seconds.

Due notice, with further particulars, will be given of the exact date when this light will be first exhibited.

G. B. MORRIS.

Notice to Mariners, No. 39 of 1884.

PORT OF GREYMOUTH.

Marine Department,
Wellington, N.Z., 26th August, 1884.

THE Harbourmaster at Greymouth reports that during the progress of wharf extension at that port, known as the Johnstone Street Contract, a red light will be exhibited between sunset and sunrise from a lantern placed on the north-west corner of the contractor’s staging, and as the works progress to the westward the light will be advanced. Masters of vessels must be careful to pass to the northward of this red light, which has no connection with and is easily distinguished from all other lights at that point by its colour and low elevation.
