Wellington, N.Z., 4th August, 1915.

CAPTAIN BOLLONS, of the New Zealand Government Steamer “Hinemoa,” reports that a sunken rock exists a quarter of a mile 119° (S. 44° E. magnetic) from the eastern extreme of Fanal Island, Moko Hinou.

  6. Square Flag S.—Signifies “Send surf-boat ashore as soon as possible, but do not bring cargo.”

  7. Flag A.—Refers to surfing cargo only, and means “You can commence surfing cargo immediately, men waiting on wharf.”

  8. When it is intended to work a vessel arriving after dark the wharf lights will be on, and, in addition to the red leading-lights, a green hand light will be waved from end of wharf (obscured approximately ½ minute, and visible approximately ½ minute) to indicate that all is clear for vessel to come in to wharf, men being handy to take lines.

Vessels are warned not to come in to wharf after dark, even if wharf leading-lights are on, without first observing above-mentioned green light.

The red leading-lights referred to above are electric, and in line from seaward bear 356° (N. 19° W. magnetic), which clears all dangers in to wharf. They are visible all round the horizon for a distance of approximately three miles, and are only shown when it is intended to work wharf at night.

Signals from Vessels in Bay.

  1. Vessels entering Bay and wishing to come in to wharf for water or bunker coal will only hoist flag W.

  2. One long blast on whistle means that if possible vessel wishes to berth at wharf.

  3. Three long blasts on whistle indicates that vessel will surf cargo, but does not wish to berth at wharf.

This list of signals only applies to small coasters.
