The Remuera, which is to leave Auckland to-day for Port Chalmers, is the first steamer burning oil fuel to leave England for New Zealand. The improvement is noticeable in many ways. Her steaming power has increased about 30 knots a day, shortening the voyage from England to New Zealand by at least four days. The absence of coal lias rendered her much cleaner both at sea and in port, and some of the former bunkor space is now available for the stowago of merchandise. A further saving in space is made through tlie vessel being able to carry a quantity of oil fuel in her double bottom, or water-ballast tanks. The Remuera now bunkers four times on a round voyage from England to New Zealand. Tlie tanks are first filled up at London; at Colon, Panama, an additional quantity is loaded, and at Wellington the tanks are replenished sufficiently to last to Panama, where they are again filled. The Remuera’s present voyage was a very stormy one, and consequently was not a fair test of the vessel’s speed: Her future performances Will be watched with interest, as her conversion is no doubt the forerunner of other passenger steamers in the trade being similarly treated. The Remuera now can steam 131 knots comfortably, hut it is understood that speed could be increased considerably.
