Notice to Mariners No. 39 of 1903.

Marine Department,
Wellington, 1st June, 1903.

THE following Notice to Mariners, received from the Marine Board, Port Adelaide, South Australia, is published for general information.

WM. HALL-JONES.

SOUTH AUSTRALIA.—GULF ST. VINCENT.—PORT ADELAIDE RIVER.

Light’s Passage Harbour-works.

MASTERS of vessels, pilots, and others are informed that during the construction of the training-wall near the entrance to the Port Adelaide River, lights will be exhibited from the piles which have been erected, as follows:—

An ordinary ship’s riding-light will be shown from the pile furthest to seaward—viz., abreast of the remains of the old pile lighthouse—and two others at distances of about half a mile between each on the starboard hand from seaward. The outer one, abreast of the old pile lighthouse, stands in about 12 ft., and the other two in 6 ft. and 3 ft. respectively.

Four beacons for dredging-marks will also be erected on the flats south and eastward of No. 1 leading-beacons. These beacons will be surmounted by a head in the shape of the letter X. When the dredgers are working at night these beacons will be lighted as follows: The southern pair, one light on each; the northern pair, two white lights vertical, 3 ft. apart, on each.

As these beacons and lights are on the flats, well out of the channel, no difficulty to navigation is anticipated. Steamers passing dredgers, barges, and pile-drivers, or any work in progress, are required to slow down. (See by-law, 8th September, 1892.)

This affects Admiralty chart No. 1750.
