Portland Bay Harbour Light.—Removal of Lighthouse.
NOTICE is hereby given that the lighthouse on Observatory
Point, Portland Bay, will be removed to Whaler's Point; the
work of removal and re-erection to be completed about the
month of August, 1889.

The present light will be exhibited, as heretofore, until the
lighthouse on Whaler's Point has been erected.

The proposed light will be of the same order and colour as
now existing. It will be elevated 130ft. above the level of
the sea, and should be visible in clear weather at a distance
of twelve miles. Position approximate—Latitude, 38° 20′ 19″
S.; longitude, 141° 37′ 31″ E.

Cape Everard Lights.
Notice is hereby given that a lighthouse now in course of
erection on the southern extremity of Cape Everard will be
completed about the month of June, 1889.

The lighthouse tower, 98ft. high, is being built of con-
crete, and a first-order holophotal double-flashing white and
red light, 185ft. above the level of the sea, will be exhibited
therefrom, showing a double flash every thirty seconds.

The white light will extend over an arc of 188 degrees sea-
ward, with an arc of red light illuminating about one mile
and a half off the coast-line to the eastward and westward of
the lighthouse.

An auxiliary red light, to cover outlying dangers, will also
be exhibited from a lower portion of the main lighthouse
tower, and will illuminate an arc of 188 degrees to seaward.
Such light will be invisible to an observer 14ft. above the
level of the sea, from seaward, until within about two miles
distance from the shore. Position, approximate—Latitude,
37° 48′ 7″ S.; longitude, 149° 16′ 30″ E.

Future notices will appear, giving further particulars, and
the exact dates on which the above-mentioned lights will be
exhibited.

Cape Capricorn.—Subsidiary Light for Clearing Rocky Islet.
NOTICE is hereby given that a subsidiary light for clearing
Rocky Islet is placed at an elevation of 240ft. above high-
water level, and S. 63° E. 230ft. from the revolving light at
Cape Capricorn.

The light, the arrangement of which is somewhat similar
to that of the subsidiary light at Bustard Head, is obscured
by a screen through a sector of 29°, viz., from S.E. by E. 4 E.
to S.S.E. E., to a distance of one mile outside Rocky Islet,
but is otherwise visible from a bearing of W. by N. to close
in to the eastern shore of Curtis Island. The north-eastern
edge of the obscured sector passes half a mile outside the
islet, and the south-western or inner edge 3 cables inside the
danger.

Vessels therefore passing outside the obscured part of the
sector will not be in less than 13 fathoms while abreast of
the islet.

Vessels approaching from the eastward should not open
the main light to the southward of the subsidiary light, as
the lights when in line pass very close to the line of
obscuration.

Vessels wishing to pass inside the islet must keep the light
in sight, northward of N.N.W. W.

The small light on the northern pitch of the cape is now
no longer exhibited.

Port Denison.—Additional Leading Light, South En-
trance.

NOTICE is hereby given that two white leading lights are
now exhibited—the north-easternmost of which is placed
S. 83° E. 700 yards from Mount Bramston—which lead clear
of the reef off the S.E. end of Stone Island.

The front light stands about 25ft. and the back light 60ft.
above high-water mark, at a distance of 1,500ft. apart.

Vessels after rounding Cape Gloucester should steer
S.W. W. until these leading lights are brought into line on
a S.W. by W. bearing, and then keep them in that position
until the leading lights to the southward of the town are in
line bearing N.W. W. The inner lights should then be
kept in line until the anchorage is reached, or the red sector
of the light on North Head is opened out on a N.N.E.
bearing.
