OVERDUE LAUNCH
The fishing launch Rover, registered at Napier No. 51, is overdue at that port from Blackhead, and a wireless broadcast has requested shipping to keep a look-out for her. The Rover is 41 feet leng and is painted white with a grey deckhouse amidships. She has two masts. The Rover,, which usually fishes off the coast at Blackhead and which may have three or four men on board, was due back at Napier on Wednesday evening, but as she failed to return it is thought that possibly she has broken down or may be sheltering somewhere.
