Launch Set Adrift At Dunedin
(New Zealand Press Association) DUNEDIN. October 20.
The Otago Harbour Board’s launch lona was set adrift early yesterday morning for the second time in less than a month. The harbourmaster (Captain E. Mackenzie) said several youths made off when the watchman approached and disappeared in a car in the direction of the city at about 2.30 a.m. It was too dark and too far away to obtain the licence number of the vehicle. About a month ago. all four of the harbour board’s launches were! set adrift. Gear was thrown overboard and some was severely damaged.
