The original templets were placed on the Bona, and June by the* official measurers to-day, with a result that both boats were found to havo liin les3 spring of keel than,the design, and the Jnne'e forward section is lialf-an-inch narrower on each side than the design of the Bona's forward section. Otherwise the boats practically correspond in design. This apparently accounts for the better carrying capacity of the Bona; in other words, she is the stiffer boat. Unfortunately Konini could not be measured, as she had been packed 41P and put aboard a train for Napier/" " ~ ->
