Notice to Mariners.—No. 65 of 1922.

WAIKATO RIVER.—BAR BEACONS.

Marine Department,
Wellington, N.Z., 12th December, 1922.

NOTICE is hereby given that a further examination of the bar beacons in October, 1922, shows that when in transit 057·7° (N. 60·5° E. magnetic) they lead over the bar in mid-channel in the only smooth part visible at L.W.

The seaward beacon is situated 296° 10·8 cables (approx.) from Putataka Point; and the near beacon is about 500 ft. distant on a slope of about 1 in 15.

The channel on the bar is now about 2 cables in width, and appears to be slowly moving northward. It is anticipated that this will subsequently necessitate slight adjustment of the beacons.

Mariners should appreciate the fact that the locality from Putataka Point seaward is totally different from that shown on the inset of Waikato River on Admiralty Chart No. 2535, 1920.

Mariners are cautioned that local knowledge is necessary when visiting this port.

Publications affected.—Admiralty Chart No. 2535; “New Zealand Pilot,” ninth edition, 1919, page 75; “New Zealand Nautical Almanac,” 1923, page 302.
