MARINE BOARD.
Notice to Mariners.
CAPTAIN CELLEM, of the s. s. “Queen” reports having grazed on a rock hitherto unknown in the Channel, between the East Cape Island and the main.
The following is an extract from his report:—“The rock is about one cable’s length west from the middle of the island, and had 12 feet water on it. I grazed the same at 1 a.m., on the 25th May, in the s. s. ‘Queen,’ on her last passage from Auckland.”
Captain Cellem’s report, and also that of the master of the s. s. “Beautiful Star,” which vessel recently struck on a rock north of the East Cape, tends to show that the whole locality is dangerous.
The Board, therefore, would caution masters of vessels against making use of the Channel in question.
