Drifter Off N. Cape
Wireless advice received last night from the Auckland 30ft cutter Drifter, which is returning from Sydney after taking part in the Tasman yacht race, stated that her position was 140 miles north-west of North Cape. The Drifter, which has been becalmed for several days, was assisted by a good wind yesterday and it is expected that she will round North Cape today. All on board are well. The cutter, owned b3' Mr K. Pragnell, of Auckland, has been at sea a fortnight.
