Moreover it is not at all clear that piles would
be secure in that particular position, the rock
being most probably at no great depth below the
sandy bottom, and the sand overlaying the rock
being liable to shift in heavy gales.
I therefore consider "Taranaki’s" idea
having a solid Jetty, instead of an open one as
proposed by the other competitors the better
proposition of the two.
All things being considered my recommendation
is that "Taranaki" be awarded the pre-
mium.
In conclusion I beg to say that the draw-
ings sent in by all of the competitors—with the
exception of those signed "Publico," reflect
much credit upon the designers.
I have, &c.,
