Notice to Mariners, No. 48 of 1895.

Guides to the Anchorages, Poverty Bay.

Marine Department,
Wellington, N.Z., 9th December, 1895.

THE Gisborne Harbour Board has notified that two
leading-beacons have been erected to mark the ap-
proach to the anchorages at that port, and that the said
beacons are situated 1 mile N. 61° 52' W. from the entrance
of the Turanganui River.

The front or eastern beacon is 25ft. high, and has an alti-
tude of 40ft. above high-water mark. This beacon has a
triangular top. The whole of the triangle and part of the
rectangle, also the lamphouse (at the base of the beacon), is
painted black, and the middle portion of the beacon is
painted white.

The back or western beacon is 30ft. high, and has an alti-
tude of 50ft. above high-water mark. This beacon has a
rectangular top, and is painted white; the lamphouse (at
the base of the beacon) is also painted white.

These beacons, when in a line, will bear N. 30° 56' W.,
and S. 30° 56' E., magnetic.

By night two red lights will be exhibited—one from the
summit of each of the above-mentioned beacons—and the
said lights will be visible all round seaward as far as the
land will allow.

On and after the herein-mentioned date the two original
red lights will be discontinued, and two green lights will be
used instead, and, when in a line with each other, will bear
N. 19° 41' E., and S. 19° 41' W., magnetic.

There will also be exhibited from the end of the break-
water, on the same night, two vertical bright lights 7ft.
apart, the top light having an altitude of 20ft. above high-
water mark. These lights are for guides for vessels entering
the river at night, and are also for the purpose of marking
the extreme south-west end of the breakwater.

Sailing Directions.

Vessels approaching the inner anchorage by day should
keep the two leading-beacons in a line N. 30° 56' W. until the
flagstaff and the beacon on the breakwater are in a line, and
bear from each other N. 19° 41' E., and then anchor in from
6½ to 7 fathoms of water.
