IN DRV DOCK AT LYTTELTON.—The 33-year-old Foremost Prince (at back) shares the graving dock with the tug Lyttelton. The Foremost Prince, which belongs to Westminster Dredging (Australia) Pty., Ltd., and is under contract to the Gisborne Harbour Board for its port development scheme, is having a major (Lloyd’s) survey. In addition to having parts of her shell and deck plating renewed, the dredge will probably be fitted with a new 96ft bucket ladder weighing 40 tons to replace a 26-ton bucket ladder recently removed by the floating crane Rapaki. The tug Lyttelton is having a routine overhaul.
