VESSELS ENTERING SLIP.
7. No person shall put or cause to be put, or assist to put,
any vessel on the slipway until the master boatman or owner
thereof has obtained from the slipmaster a permit in the
form numbered 1 in the Schedule hereto, and has paid the
fee hereafter provided.
8. Every application for a permit shall be made in writing
in the form numbered 2 in the Schedule hereto, and shall
immediately it is received be registered in a book kept for
that purpose by the slipmaster.
9. The slipway shall be available for use according to
priority of registration. Any vessel not arriving at the slip-
way at the time appointed for that vessel to enter may, at
the discretion of the slipmaster, forfeit the benefit of priority.
10. Every master boatman shall allow the cradle to be used
for another vessel to be taken on at the same time, as occasion
may require, if, in the opinion of the slipmaster, there is
room on the cradle for such other vessel.
11. Notwithstanding anything herein contained the slip-
master shall be entitled absolutely or conditionally to refuse
to permit any vessel to be put on the slipway if he thinks
that by reason of her size, weight, or design the slipway may
be liable to damage or the use of the slipway by other vessels
may be unduly delayed.
12. No master boatman shall place such vessel on the slip
whilst there is on board of such vessel any explosive, fuel oil,
petroleum, petroleum spirit, or other dangerous
goods as defined by the Explosive and Dangerous Goods Act,
1908, and its amendments.
VESSELS REMAINING AND LEAVING SLIP.
13. If in the opinion of the slipmaster, wind and weather,
or sea, or the circumstances that another vessel is using the
slipway, will not permit of a vessel being launched, the vessel
may be allowed or required to remain on the slip for such
time as the slipmaster may think necessary. No additional
charge shall be made for the time during which the slipway
is being so used, and no demand for demurrage shall be
made in respect of the vessel so remaining on the slip, nor
shall any person be entitled to make any claim for delay or
otherwise arising out of the detention of the vessel.
14. No person shall keep a vessel longer than fourteen
days upon the slip except under special circumstances and
by or under special agreement with the Department.
15. The slipmaster shall have power where the occasion
requires it, of which matter he shall be the sole judge, to order
the master boatman of any vessel to remove such vessel from
the slip or from any position on the slip to any other position,
and every master boatman shall forthwith comply with such
order. If in any case a master boatman fails or neglects to
comply with an order of the slipmaster made under this
regulation the slipmaster may arrange for the work of such
removal, and the cost thereof shall, without prejudice to the
liability of any person to the penalties hereinafter provided,
be recoverable in the same way as fees for the use of the
slipway.
16. Notwithstanding anything hereinbefore contained, it
shall be lawful for a vessel to be taken upon the slip and
moved laterally and remain on the skids for the period
specified when making application for permission to enter
the slipway:
Provided that should the master boatman desire to remove
such vessel from its position for any specified purpose per-
mission to do so may be granted on application, stating the
grounds therefor, being made to the slipmaster, if the slip-
master considers that it is expedient to grant the same :
Provided further that on the vessel returning, it must take
up the position indicated by the slipmaster, notwithstanding
that such position is not that originally occupied by the
vessel. No fee in addition to that hereinafter provided for
shall be payable in respect of the authority granted under
this regulation notwithstanding that a vessel may depart
from and return to its position periodically or otherwise during
the currency of the term.
WORK TO BE DONE ON SLIP.
17. No person shall make any repairs to any vessel on the
slipway which can, in the opinion of the slipmaster, be done
off it, when another vessel is waiting to go on. So soon as
the slipmaster considers that the vessel on the slip is repaired,
so far as the use of the slip is required, he may order the
removal of such vessel from the slip and the master boatman
shall forthwith comply with such order and the provisions of
Regulation 15 hereof shall apply.
18. No person shall break up, lengthen, or scuttle any
vessel upon the slip without the written authority of the
slipmaster, and subject to such conditions as the slipmaster
thinks fit to impose.
19. No person shall do work of any description on the slip
on Sundays, except upon proved emergency, and only with
the express written consent of the slipmaster.
20. No person shall throw, discharge, place, or permit to
be thrown, discharged, or placed any sewage, garbage, or
refuse in or upon the slip.
21. The master boatman of any vessel shall from time to
time, and as often as the slipmaster may so require, cause to
be removed from the slipway and its vicinity all chips, dirt,
refuse, or rubbish of any sort arising from the repair or
cleaning of any vessel, and shall cause the adjoining buildings
and premises and the ways of the slip to be properly swept
and cleaned before the vessel is launched from the slip. If
in any case the master boatman neglects to comply with the
provisions of this regulation, the slipmaster may arrange for
the carrying-out of the work, and the cost thereof shall, with-
out prejudice to the liability of any person to the penalties
hereinafter provided, be recoverable in the same way as fees
for the use of the slipway.
FEES AND PENALTIES.
22. Fees for the use of the slipway shall be paid in advance
to the Department according to the following scale :-
(a) For a period of twenty-four hours-£1 ; and for every
succeeding twenty-four hours or portion thereof-1s.
(b) For a period not exceeding one calendar year expiring
on the 31st day of December (flat rate)-£3.
23. The cost of any work arranged for by the slipmaster
arising out of a default by a master boatman shall include all
sums paid for labour specially engaged, together with a
reasonable sum for the services of any officer or employee
of the Department engaged on the work.
24. The owner and the master boatman of any vessel in
respect of which any fees or costs payable under these regula-
tions are incurred shall be jointly and severally liable for
payment thereof, and the same shall be recoverable in any
Court of competent jurisdiction as a debt due to the Crown.
25. Any person who commits or attempts to commit a
breach of any of the foregoing regulations shall, in addition
to the liability to make good any loss, damage, or injury
which may have been caused, sustained, or occasioned by
such breach, be liable to a penalty of £5 for every such
breach or attempted breach.
