Session 11. 1912. NEW ZEALAND.
INSPECTION OF MACHINERY: ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT FOR 1911-12.
Presented to both Houses of the General Assembly by Command of His Excellency.
The Hon. the Minister in Charge of the Inspection of Machinery Department to His Excellency the Governor. My Lord, — Inspection of Machinery Department, Wellington, 27th June, 1912. I do myself the honour to transmit herewith, for Your Excellency's information, the report of the Inspection of Machinery Department of the Dominion for the financial year ended the 31st March last. I have, &c, Geo. Lacrenson, Minister in Charge of the Inspection of Machinery Department. His Excellency the Right Hon. Baron Islington, Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand.
The Chief Inspector of Machinep.y to the Hon. the Minister in Charge of the Inspection op Machinery Department. Inspection of Machinery Department, Sir, — Customhouse Buildings, Wellington, 7th May, 1912. I have the honour to submit herewith the annual report on the operations of the Inspection of Machinery Department during the twelve months which ended on the 31st March, 1912. During the year nothing has occurred to mar the smooth working of the Department. No loss of life or limb has been reported with boilers during the year, and at the end of a year this is a very gratifying statement to be able to make. I heartily congratulate the various Inspectors on their year's work, on the zeal they have displayed, and on the means they have adopted to ensure public safety against accident with steam machinery. In reading over the British Board of Trade's latest available returns as recorded in that body's reports on Preliminary Inquiries under the Boiler Explosions Acts, I find the total number of explosions during the year 1909-10 was 103. As a result of these explosions 14 persons were killed and 62 were injured, making a total of 76 casualties. There is no doubt that compulsory inspection tends to diminish the dangers attendant on the working of all vessels carrying steam under pressure. The owners themselves are alive to this fact also, for they seldom object to make the timely repairs asked for by the Inspectors at their annual inspections. Owing to the great increase in the use of machinery in many ways to save labour in manufactures, ire, throughout the Dominion, the present staff is quite inadequate to cope with the inspecting of it, and in the near future it will be necessary to increase the number of Inspectors and Surveyors. It is illegal to work such plants without a certificate. Every year several hundreds of new boilers, machinery, and ships are added to our books, and as the Dominion grows the increase will be proportionately greater. Very few prosecutions have been made during the year. In most cases the prosecutions have been for' working boilers without having the prescribed certificated engine-driver in charge. Several accidents have occurred to persons who were attending to moving machinery, but it is impossible to entirely eliminate these. The surveys of steamships that were due for survey have all been dealt with and completed during the year, excepting in cases where extensions have been given to vessels near the close of the year. Several extensive repairs to steamships have been made with the autogenous welding and cutting-out process during the year. When the work had to be done in a confined space this process has proved of the greatest value as a time-saver, and also in diminishing the cost of repairs where such work had formerly to be done by hand-labour. In building up wasted parts of boilers and in welding fractured parts it has been used with great advantage. During the year there has been a large amount of general repairs done to both steamships and sailing-vessels which has called for close supervision by the staff. • The passing of the Shipping and Seamen Amendment Act, 1909, which received the Royal assent last year, necessitated the surveying of a great number of additional sailing-vessels and

oil-launches throughout the Dominion. In many cases long distances had to be traversed to get to the place where the vessels could be surveyed. The necessity for such legislation, was apparent in many cases where the structures of some of the ships dealt with had wasted ,to such' an extent as to make them unsafe. The appliances for the safe navigation of the vessels and for life-saving were often found defective and insufficient. This new work has occupied the whole time of one Surveyor of Ships, and the work was not quite complete at the end of the financial year. I met a great many of the engineers and steamship-owners during the year in different parts of the Dominion. The engineering trade generally has been busier this year than last year. This applies more particularly to the South Island. Shipbuilding has been fairly busy in Auckland and Dunedin, and most of the vessels that have been turned out do credit to the Dominion. Shipping interests will always, from our insular position, be of paramount importance. The recent additions to steamers engaged in the intercolonial trade would do credit to any country, and afford ample comfort to the traveller. The enterprise of the shipping companies is to be commended in bringing out such vessels to trade in these waters. The Examiners of marine engineers, land engineers, land-engine drivers, and electric-tram drivers have had a busy time during the year, the official examination of electric motormen in New Zealand having been undertaken by the officers of this Department this year for the first time. Boilers inspected. The number of boilers inspected and for which certificates were issued during the year total 5,968. This section of the Department's work is still in arrears. Each year adds to the number of boilers that have to be dealt with, and the country to be traversed to get to them also covers a wider area. The weather-conditions have not been so favourable this year, and this made a considerable difference in some of the country districts where the roads are not properly formed and metalled. All the machinery driven by these boilers was also attended to and inspected. The plans of new boilers submitted for the Department's ruling as to pressure, design, and scantlings total 498. These were all carefully examined before a decision as to the safe workingpressure to be granted was arrived at. The whole of the details were arranged amicably between the Department and the owner. The plan of deciding before construction as to the pressure to be granted seems to have met a want, for it secures uniformity of construction throughout the Dominion. Government Boilers and Machinery. Most of the Government boilers and machinery at their works and institutions have been inspected during the year. The total inspections made were 128, and consist of 84 boilers, 14 lifts, 16 oil-engines, 9 gas-engines, and 5 electric motors. Certificates were issued in each case, and repairs were carried out where necessary. Defects of Boilers and Fittings. A great many defects were found both in boilers and in their fittings. The total defects found numbered j ,006. Of this number 50 were very dangerous. Return No. 2 gives a complete list of the defects discovered. New Boilers. The new boilers inspected during the year numbered 498, with a total horse-power of 6,441|. Of this number 313, of 3,232| total horse-power, were made in the Dominion. During the year the percentage of imported boilers is greater than was the case during the previous year. This I consider a great loss to the Dominion and to those firms who have installed hydraulic and other appliances for dealing expeditiously with this class of manufactured goods, and who can turn out work that compares favourably with any imported boilers. The following table shows the number and horse-power of the new boilers, and the districts to which they have gone : —

Gas-, Water-, and Electric-driven Machinery, Lifts, and Machinery Inspections. The total number of inspections made during the year of this class of machinery was 6,702. The number of gas-engines inspected was 1,413, of oil-engines 2,283, of lifts and motors (which include water and electric motors) 2,962. and also 44 steam-machinery inspections. Fencing of Machinery. A good deal of guarding of machinery has been done to lesson the risk to those who work at or near it. Return No. 4 gives full particulars of the guarding done. Examination of Land Engineers and Engine-drivers. These examinations have been held at the stated times and places as set out in the printed regulations. In order to save candidates time and expense special examinations were held in other centres when the Inspectors were making inspections in the country districts. The places at which examinations were held were —Auckland,* Blenheim,* Christchurch,* Gisborne,* Greymouth,* Hamilton,* Hawera, Invercargill,* Kaponga, Kowiti, Manakau, Mangarakau, Masterton, Napier,* Nelson,* New Plymouth, Oamaru, Palmerston North,* Patea, Puponga, Shannon, Timaru,* Waitara, Wanganui,* and Wellington.* For the extra, first-class engineers' certificate II sat, 6 of whom passed; 110 sat for the first-class engine-drivers' certificate, 44 of whom passed; 243 sat for the second-class engine-drivers' certificate, and 160 passed; 243 sat for the locomotive and traction engine drivers' certificate, and 193 of these passed; 14 sat for the winding-engine drivers' certificate, of whom 11 passed. The total number of candidates who sat for examination was 621. Reciprocal certificates were issued to applicants who held certificates from other States as follows : New South Wales, 1; Queensland, 1; Tasmania, 1; Transvaal, 1; Western Australia, 1 : total, 5. Returns Nos. 7 to 13 give full particulars of those who passed these examinations, together with the different grades and classes of examination. Examination of Electric-tram Drivers. For the first time in New Zealand examinations were held during the year to test the qualifications of the drivers of electric-tram cars. The engineers connected with the different tramway systems assisted the Department materially in placing cars at the disposal of the examiners when required so that the drivers' knowledge could be put to a practical test. Circular instructions were issued from the Head Office with respect to the examinations, and a large number of questions suitable for the testing of the driver's knowledge in matters connected with his duties as a motorman were sent to each examiner at centres where the examinations were held. Regulations governing the conduct of these examinations were gazetted on the 20th July, 1911. Examinations were held at Auckland, Christchurch, Dunedin, Invercargill, Wanganui, and Wellington. 148 candidates presented themselves for examination. These examinations will now be held periodically. A service certificate was issued to each person who, not later than the 24th December, 1911, applied for one and produced evidence to the satisfaction of the Board of Examiners that he was, for a period of not less than one year at any time before the passing of the Tramways Amendment Act, 1910, employed as a motorman and had not been subsequentlydismissed for misconduct. Returns Nos. 14 and 15 give full particulars of those to whom service certificates were issued and those who passed the examination for competency certificates. Tin; Board of Examiners. The Board sat for the conduct of business connected with examinations, &c, on nine occasions. An addition was made to the Board by appointing Mr. E. Parry, B.Sc, A.M.1.C.E., M.1.E.E., Electrical Engineer of the Public Works Department, as a member when dealing with electrictram drivers' certificates. The date of his appointment was the 6th August, 1911. Accidents. A number of accidents have been reported to the Department to those who have been working in connection with machinery in motion. A large number of the accidents have been in the woodworking industries. Nearly all the machines run at a high speed, and those who work them are liable to accident unless they exercise great care. In nearly every case the fingers are affected. A great deal of attention has been given to the protection of this and other classes of machinery in motion, but such protection, without due care by the employee, does not eliminate all the danger. No boiler accident with loss of life or injury to any attendant has been recorded during the year, and the high standard and rigid methods adopted by the officers of the Department in making their inspections must tend to lessen the risks with boilers which are now used at very high pressures. The owners do not place any obstacles in the way of an Inspector carrying out his duties, and they materially assist the Department by getting their plants clean and cool for the Inspector's visit. Returns Nos. 5 and 6 give full particulars of each reported accident. Postal and Police Departments. The Police and Postal Departments have rendered signal service to this Department in many ways. The number of certificates that are issued to machinery-owners through the Postal Depart-

ment has increased enormously of late years, owing to so many more machinery prime movers being used. The police, on being notified by this Department that a machinery-owner has not taken up his certificate, do their best to secure the lifting of the certificate by the owner. In some cases the assistance of the police has been secured in connection with prosecutions for breaches of the Act. Examination of Marine Engineers. Examinations for marine engineers were held at Auckland,* Alexandra,* Balclutha, Christchurch,* Cromweli,* Dunedin,* Eketahuna, Gisborne,* Greymouth,* Hamilton,* Havelock, Invercargill,* Karamea, Kawakawa, Napier,* Nelson,* Paeroa, Palmerston North,* Pongaroa, Timaru,* Waihi, Wanganui,* Wellington,* Westport, and Whangarei. When possible, candidates were examined at other times and places than those set out in the printed regulations, but it is almost impossible now to accede to the many requests made in this direction, as the staff cannot spare the time for the additional work. The candidates have ample time to make up their minds as to when and where to sit for examination, as the dates of examinations at the various centres are given in the regulations. At some of the centres more than a week in a month is taken up with the ordinary examination-work before all the candidates are put through. The number of candidates who sat this year total 245 :of these, 53 failed. The different classes for which the candidates sat were as follows : First-class marine engineer, second-class marine engineer, thirdclass marine engineer, river engineer, first-class engineer of auxiliary sea-going powered vessels, second-class engineer of auxiliary sea-going powered vessels, and restricted-limits engineer of auxiliary-powered vessels. The fees for these examinations amounted to £214. Return No. 16 gives the names of the successful candidates, the various grades for which they passed, the total number of applicants, fees payable, and the number of candidates who failed to pass such examinations. Explosives. During the year, at the Port of Wellington, 264 permits were issued for the carriage of explosives on passenger and non-passenger ships. Annual Survey of Steamships and Auxiliary-powered Vessels. . The work in connection with the annual survey of vessels has been well maintained during the year. As a ship gets older greater care has to be exercised in dealing with scantlings that may have become reduced through corrosion or decay. So far, the officers of the Department are to be congratulated on the judgment they 7 have shown in dealing witli ship-survey work, for during the year no ship has been detained through a faulty survey. Several new vessels have been built in New Zealand during the year, and these have been duly inspected throughout the whole period of construction. Plans and detailed specifications were submitted in each case, and were approved of before the construction of the vessels was authorized. Forty-nine of the vessels surveyed were fitted with new propeller-shafts, seventeen had new propellers fitted, eight had new engines fitted, two had new cylinders fitted, and one had a new boiler installed. For some time past now propeller-shafts have been withdrawn every two years for examination, and the number which are found to be defective shows that this procedure is a very necessary one. No objection is now made to this being done by shipowners. It is much better to find the flaw in a shaft when the vessel is in dock than to have to search for a steamer that may have had the misfortune to break her propeller-shaft in mid-ocean. The total number of surveys made during the year total 613. The fees for these surveys amounted to £2,091. The usual special excursion trips were run during the year, and without, any mishap. The intercolonial ships had to have additional accommodation provided to cope with the passenger traffic on many of the weekly trips run. The whole of the extra berthing, ventilation, lighting, and equipments were duly inspected, before the vessels were permitted to sail, by the Surveyors of the Department. Return No. 17 gives the total number of steamers and of auxiliary-powered vessels surveyed by the Surveyors of the Department during the year. It also gives the names and registered tonnage of each vessel, the nominal horse-power and indicated horse-power of steam-vessels, the brake horse-power of auxiliary-powered vessels, and the nature of machinery and propeller. The following is a brief description of the work involved in some of the most important surveys made during the year : — S.s. "Admiral." —This vessel had the following repairs'made to the hull: Two new deckbeams were fitted aft; two new horn timbers were fitted under the deck-beams aft, extending from inner stern-post right aft. These timbers were ironbark, 6 in. by 7 in. by 12 ft. long. Eleven new stanchions for the stern bulwarks were fitted, and the bulwarks and railings were renewed. 120 ft. of deck-planking, 4 in. by 2i in., were renewed on the after-deck, and also 20 ft. of the coveringboard, 12 in. by 3 in. About twenty sheets of Muntz-metal were put on the hull. To the engines a new mild-steel block was fitted to the h.p. link motion. To the boiler some caulking in the combustion-chambers and shell was necessary. Of the steering-gear chains, the defective portion was renewed and the remainder annealed. S.s. " Aorangi." —This is a passenger-steamer engaged in the foreign-going trade, and was surveyed in New Zealand for the first time last year. She received a general overhaul. A new M.P. crank-pin and piece of shafting were fitted to the main engines. Several stays and their nuts were renewed in the main boilers. All auxiliary steam-pipes were tested by hydraulic pressure to double the working steam-pressure. The watertight doors were made workable, and new

rubber joints and bolts were fitted to some of them. Some air-tanks for lifeboats were repaired, and thirty-six new patent sheaves were fitted to boat's tackles. The mizzen-mast was taken out and the defective portion in way of tops was cut out, 12 ft. of new mast put in, and the mast converted into a pole mast S.s. " Aotea," of Kaipara. —The hull of this vessel has been thoroughly strengthened, and there is now no vibration of the hull when vessel is under way. The hull-planking under the covering-board on each side was removed, and a 10 in. by 4 !n - steel-plate longitudinal stringer was fitted for the full length on both sides of hull. New timber was fitted over the stringers and bolted with through bolts to the frames of the vessel. All fittings inside the vessel were removed, and twelve angle-iron bars, 3 in. by 3 in. by fg in., were fitted diagonally from under the deck, down the sides of the vessel, and bolted to the sister keelsons. Four plate brackets were fitted vertically on the outside of the vessel to underneath the skeleton keel, which supports a bare stern-post carrying the outer end of the tail-shaft. The tail-shaft was drawn, a new brass liner fitted, and the stern bush rewooded. S.s. " Arapawa." —No. I hatch of this steamer was removed and the foremast put 8 ft. further forward. No. 2 hatch was lengthened to 20 ft. 6 in. Three large gusset-stays were fitted to each side of the vessel in lieu of stanchions. The coamings of the new length of the hatch were made thicker than those in the old part, and were stiffened with angle irons to compensate for the larger opening in the deck. A sketch of the alterations to be made were submitted to the Department and approved of before the contract for the work was let. P.s. " Clutha." —The steel hull, engines, and boiler of this vessel were built last year in Dunedin under the supervision of the Department's Surveyors. The vessel is engaged carryingpassengers and cargo on the Clutha River. Her tonnage is 173 gross and 95 register, and the length, breadth, and depth are 107 ft., 26 ft., and 5 ft. 3 in. respectively. The vessel is propelled by two stern paddle-wheels driven by two sets of compound surface-condensing engines, with cylinders 12 in. and 24 in. diameter and 33 in. stroke. Steam is supplied by a locomotive boiler fitted with a superheater, at a working-pressure of 1601b. per square inch.

The paddle-wheels are of the feathering type, and are 10 ft. diameter over all. S.s. " Energy." —The hull, engines, and boiler of this vessel received a thorough overhaul. To the hull new bulwarks and coamings were fitted, and a new skylight to the engine-room. A new lamp-locker and deck-house were built. A complete new rudder was fitted. In the engineroom, pistons, pumps, &c, were overhauled, and new crossheads and guides and a new l.p. slidevalve supplied. All plain tubes and combustion-chamber crown stays, fifteen space-stays, the patch in furnace and combustion-chamber, all water-gauge mountings and test-cocks, and the funnel were renewed. S.s. " Fire Float," of Auckland. —A new set of compound surface-condensing engines was fitted to this vessel. The cylinder-diameters are 9 in. and 18 in., with a stroke of 10 in. New main and auxiliary steam-pipes were fitted, and tested by hydraulic pressure to double the working steam-pressure. S.s. " Flora." —Extensive alterations and repairs were made to this vessel, which has now been converted from a passenger to a cargo vessel. A new h.p. valve and a new tail-shaft and propeller-blades were fitted to the engines. Several patches and stay-nuts in the main boilers were renewed. The donkey boiler was put ashore. A deck-house was renewed. Three extra hatches and five new winches were fitted. The masts were shortened and moved aft 8 ft. Sixteen new stanchions were fitted in the 'tween decks, and one new mooring-pipe and sheathing-plates fitted in way of same. Thirty of the ports were closed up in the ship's side. The passenger accommodation was converted into hold space.. The deck was repaired under the donkey boiler, and also the bulwarks in way of Nos. 3 and 4 hatches; 30 ft. of new bulwarks were fitted in way of Nos. 1 and 2 hatches, and some of the rivets were renewed in the hull. S.s. " Hauiti." —This vessel, which is of wood, was built in Auckland for the passenger and cargo trade. The plans of the hull were submitted for approval and passed before the construction was begun. The principal dimensions of the vessel are —Tonnage, 147 gross and 82 register; length, 100 ft,; breadth, 20 ft.; depth, 7 ft. 6 in. The propelling machinery consists of one set of compound surface-condensing engines of 230 i.h.p., supplied with steam from a marine multitubular boiler. The passenger accommodation consists of a dining-saloon and ladies' cabin in the after-part of the vessel. The vessel may carry 28 passengers at sea, and 242 and 439 passengers in partially smooth and smooth water limits respectively. S.s. " Hawera." —This vessel, which is also of wood, was built in Auckland for the Patea Shipping Company. Plans and specifications of the hull were submitted to the Department and approved before the construction of the vessel was commenced. The hull is built on the diagonal principle, and is insulated.

" Mararoa." —The repairs to this vessel consisted of four new intercostals in No. 4 ballasttank and two sheathing-plates, 10 ft. by 2 ft. by § in., and eight smaller patches, fitted on top of tank. The main boilers received a thorough overhaul. In the forward port boiler twenty-eight combustion-chamber stays and one longitudinal stay-nut were renewed. In the forward starboard boiler thirty-two combustion-chamber stays were renewed. In the after starboard boiler 143 plain tubes were renewed, and all cracks at junction of tube-plate and furnace were welded and reriveted. Twenty-two rivets were renewed on the side of combustion-chamber, one small patch was renewed on the top of furnace, and sixteen permanent stoppers were renewed.

The main engines and auxiliaries were also put in good order. S.s. " Moa."— -Under the boiler of this vessel five new frames have been fitted, and new sides put in bottom half of port and starboard bunkers. In the boiler one tube was renewed, a patch was put on the back of the combustion-chamber, and several rivets were renewed. A new funnel was fitted. To the main engines a new tail-shaft and propeller were fitted, and a new Lignum Vitse bush was fitted to the stern-tube. The shafting was lined up and the engines put into thorough working-order. S.s. " Mokoia." —This vessel received a good overhaul to hull, boilers, and machinery. One plate, 24 ft. by 2 ft. by § in., was fitted on deck in alleyways over stokehold and bunker, and the stringer on the port side of stokehold was repaired. All plain tubes and three combustionchamber stays were renewed in the forward boiler; three plain tubes and five combustion-chamber stays were renewed in the after port boiler. Seven plain tubes were renewed in the after starboard boiler. A new cover was fitted to the h.p. cylinder, and new metal put on l.p. guide-shoe, top half of h.p. eccentric straps, and bottom half of No. 6 main bearing. The tunnel shafting was lined up. All auxiliaries were also overhauled, S.s. " Monowai." —The hull of this vessel was repaired under the main boilers, where twentytwo intercostals and 24 ft. of keelson on each side were renewed. Six floors were sheathed, each with plates 7ft. by 2ft. by fin. The hull in way of ash-chute was sheathed with two plates, one 6 ft. by 3 ft, by |in and one 3 ft. square by \ in. In the boiler several cracked rivet-holes were repaired with the autogenous welding process, and several stays and nuts were renewed. In the centre furnaces of the starboard boiler and port boilers the bottom parts of the tube-plates were renewed, and forty-three tubes were renewed in the port furnace of the starboard boiler. S.s. " Moturoa." —The pressure of the boiler of this vessel had been reduced 201b. per square inch owing to the tail-shaft being corroded. At last survey a new end was welded on the tailshaft, and the stern-bush was relined. In the boiler all patches on the bottom were taken off, and two new ones were fitted extending over the wasted portion. A compensating-ring was fitted round the mudhole opening, and a new mud-door fitted. Part of the bottom of the combustion-chamber was renewed, and the patch on the back end of the furnace at bottom and the lower part of back plate was cut out and a new. patch put on. Twelve new screwed stays have been put in combustionchamber, three new bar stays in steam-space, six new stay-tubes and twelve new ordinary tubes have also been put in. The shaft and boiler are in good repair now, and the safety-valves of the boiler have been set to blow off at an increase in pressure of 101b. S.s. " Muritai " (" Karaka "). —This new steamer, the first to be built in Wellington for some years, is owned by the Wellington Harbour Ferries Company (Limited). The hull, which is of wood, has a length of 77 ft. 6 in. by 15 ft. 6 in. beam, and is built on the bent-frame principle. The keel, keelsons, stem, stern, and rudder-posts are of ironbark timber; kauri has been used for the bottom planking and the main deck, and Oregon pine has been used for the top planking.

Sailing-ships. A large amount of time has been spent by the Surveyors of Ships on sailing-vessels during the year. By the Shipping and Seamen Amendment Act, 1909, all sailing-vessels over 5 tons register and employed in the home trade have now to be surveyed. Altogether 104 sailing-vessels were surveyed and inspected during the year. A large number were found to be very defective in the hull, and had in some cases to undergo considerable overhaul. The whole of the repairs and renewals were carefully supervised and afterwards passed by the Surveyors before the vessels were permitted to run. Return No. 18 gives the names of these vessels, their gross and registered tonnage measurements, class of vessel, and the number of times surveyed. The total fees for the survey of these sailing-vessels amounted to £329 10s.

Mr. Matthew Sharp, Inspector of Machinery and Surveyor of Ships, died on the 19th December, 1911, after an illness of some four months. He joined the Department on the Ist February, 1902. He was a very careful and trusted surveyor and inspector, and his decisions, both in shipping and land work, were never questioned either by shipowners or machinery-owners. By his death the Department has lost the services of a very capable officer. Mr. Archibald Walker, one of the Inspectors of Machinery and Surveyors of Ships stationed at Dunedin, left the service on the 12th March, 1912, to take ud the position of Lloyd's Marine Surveyor and representative at Wellington. Mr. Walker joined the service on the 3rd January, 1901, and has been continuously in the Otago District, He proved himself to be a very reliable and trustworthy officer, and carried out his duties at all times to the satisfaction of the Department. Mr. Henry Wetherilt, who was the senior officer as Inspector of Machinery and Surveyor of Ships at Auckland, retires from the service on superannuation on the 14th June, 1912. He joined the service on the 27th February, 1896, and was stationed first at Dunedin, but afterwards transferred to Auckland on the 4th April, 1902. He was a trusted servant of the Department, and carried out his duties at all times to the satisfaction of the Department. To fill the vacancies thus caused the following appointments were made : Mr. Thomas Cooper was appointed on the 3rd January, 1912, Mr. Henry Nov on the 13th March, 1912, and Mr, James McAlpine on the 25th March, 1912,

Date of Survey. Name of Vessel. Where surveyed. Nature of Casualty, &c 1911. Lpril 4 S.s. Wairau Nelson On the 4th April, 1911, as this vessel was leaving Motueka for Karamea, a slight defect was noticed at the flange of the main steam-pipe. The vessel put into Nelson, where the pipe was repaired. It was afterwards tested to 280 lb. per square inch by hydraulic pressure. On the 26th March, 1911, on a trip from Nelson to Hokitika, when about one mile north of the Hokitika Bar, the end of the propeller-shaft broke and the propeller was lost. The vessel was put under sail for Greymouth, and when off that port was taken in tow by the s.s. " Himitangi," which towed her into port. A spare propeller and shaft were then fitted. During the voyage of this vessel from New Caledonia to Wellington on the 24th April, 1911, it was noticed that the main steam-pipe was leaking round the brazing of one of the flanges. On arrival at Wellington the pipe was taken on shore for repairs, the defective portion of the pipe being cut off and a new piece 8 in. long brazed on. The pipe was afterwards tested to 360 lb. per square inch by hydraulic pressure. On the 3rd May, 1911, this vessel left Dunedin for Lyttelton. When off Harrington Point, Otago Harbour, she failed to answer her helm and took the ground at 4.20 p.m. She remained aground until 6.20 p.m. when, with the assistance of a tug and her own engines, she came off. After an examination of the vessel at Dunedin she proceeded to Lyttelton, where a further examination of her hull was made by a diver, when the vessel was found to be uninjured. The steering gear was examined and the spring which keeps the clutch in gear was found to be weak. This spring was renewed and the steering-gear was then found to be otherwise in good condition. On the 4th May, 1911, during the voyage from Tokomaru Bay to Auckland and when off Cuvier Island, the starboard steering-rod carried away. The chain being then slack came off the barrel of the drum, got jambed, and broke the flange of the drum. After several hours work temporary repairs were effected, which enabled the vessel to reach Auckland. New steering-rods were fitted, the drum was repaired by the acetylene welding-process, and the fairleads raised. The steering-gear, after completion of these repairs, was found to be in good condition. This vessel was making a trip from Foxton to Wanganui on the 16th May, 1911, when she collided with the s.s. " Wairau " in the Manawatu River. After the collision the " Himitangi" proceeded on her voyage to Wanganui, where an inspection was made. The only damage found was a slight bulge at the 5 ft. water-mark on the starboard bow, which did not affect her seaworthiness. At 11 a.m. on the 21st May, 1911, on a voyage from Niue to Auckland, in latitude 34-32 and longitude 175-56 E., this vessel sprang a leak. Some oakum had worked out of the bottom of the centre-board casing. On arrival in Auckland the base of the centre-board casing was recaulked, and a 6 in. by 6 in. angle iron was fitted and jointed the whole length of the casing. On a trip from the Thames to Auckland, on the 28th May, 1911, this vessel went ashore in a fog off Motuihi Island. The vessel remained fast for two and a half hours and then floated off as the tide rose. On arrival in Auckland, after examination, she was found to have sustained no damage. On the 1st June, 1911, on the trip from Great Barrier Island to Auckland, two small holes were discovered in this vessel's hull below the water-line. On arrival in Auckland, after a survey of the plate, it was found the holes were caused by corrosion. The plate was otherwise in good condition. The holes were plugged up. On the 16th May, 1911, this vessel was on a voyage from Puponga to Foxton, and when proceeding up the Manawatu River she collided with the s.s. " Himitangi." The starboard side of the hull was cut into about 8 ft. forward from the break of the bridge, and the damage extended from the deck to the round of bilge. The vessel settled down by the head and took the ground in the bed of the river. Temporary repairs were made by a diver, and the vessel was pumped out and refloated on the 28th May. Necessary repairs were effected to enable vessel to make the trip to Picton, where permanent repairs were made. On 5th June, 1911, an outbreak of fire occurred in the 'tween decks as she was leaving Auckland for Limestone Island. A survey was made, when the vessel was found to have received no damage. .pril 8 S.s. Jane Douglas Nelson .pril 28 S.s. Strathendrick Wellington .ay 3, 4 S.s.

Poherua Wellington On the 27th May, 1911, this vessel was crossing the Greymouth Bar, on a trip from Wellington, when she touched the ground off the North-Tip Head. Through suddenly taking a sheer the vessel got too close to the Tip Head. She made no water, and it was decided to load her and return to Wellington. She was placed on the slip at Wellington for survey. The hull forward was found to be set up in several places, and a number of rivets loosened. One new plate was fitted in the garboard strake on the starboard side, and about forty defective rivets were renewed. About three hundred rivets were cut out df dented plates on the port side in the fore peak and No. 1 tank and reriveted, and one new butt-strap fitted. Two dented parts of margin plate were cut out in No. 1 tank on port side and two new pieces of plate and angle irons fitted. Three new gusset - plates were fitted between margin plate and frames on port side, and about 6 ft. of one frame was renewed. On the 17th May, 1911, as this vessel was entering Tauranga Harbour, on a voyage from Auckland, she took the ground. The vessel remained fast until the 20th May, when she came off after being lightened. A survey of the vessel was made, but no damage of any sort was found. This vessel was on a voyage from Wellington to London, via the Bluff. At 7 a.m. on the 17th February, 1911, two hours and a half after high water, the Captain was taking the vessel into the Bluff Harbour without a pilot when, owing to the ebb tide, the vessel sheered over on to the midchannel rock and grounded. She remained aground until 12.23 p.m. of the same day, when she came off as the tide rose and with the assistance of her own engines. The vessel proceeded to Port Chalmers for docking and examination, when it was found that the hull had been considerably damaged. The following repairs were found necessary : Nine plates on the port side and one keelplate were renewed. Fifteen plates on the port side, seven on the starboard side, and four keel-plates were taken out, straightened, and replaced in position. Eight plates on the starboard side were straightened in position. Four plates were taken out of the stern of the vessel for the purpose of fitting in a new portion of the stern-frame, and then replaced in position. One plate in the centre girder was renewed, and portions of two margin plates were renewed, one in No. 3 and one in No. 6 tanks. Four floor-plates were renewed, three were removed, straightened, and replaced in position, and five were straightened in position on the starboard side. Two floor-plates and two half plates were renewed, and nine were straightened in position. One intercostal plate was renewed, and a number were straightened in position. One margin bracket was renewed, and a number were straightened in position on the port side. No. 3 tank-top was repaired and reriveted where necessary. The lower portions of the forward and after bulkheads in the forward deep tank were cut out and renewed. The lower section of the stern-frame from scarf on rudder-post to scarf on stern-post was renewed. The following repairs to the rudder were carried out: A new main piece and one new pintle were fitted, and 10 ft. of rudder-head was renewed. The propeller-blades were taken off, straightened, and pieces burnt on where necessary ; the propeller-shaft was drawn, the stern-tube nut was removed and the stern-tube examined. Four cast-iron ballast suction-pipes were also renewed. On the 30th May, 1911, on a voyage from Auckland to Levuka, this vessel struck a reef in Navula Passage and grounded. After lightening the vessel, and with the assistance of her own engines, she was refloated on the 2nd June. On her return to Auckland she was placed in Calliope Dock for examination ; it was then found that the plates in the fore part of the hull were corrugated to some extent. The seams and rivets, however, were very little damaged. Some of the seams were recaulked, and four rivets were renewed. On the 15th June, 1911, this vessel was proceeding from Westport to Foxton, and when crossing the Manawatu Bar during a heavy sea went ashore. The vessel was refloated on the 17th June, when she sailed for Wellington in company with the s.s. " Queen of the South," and on arrival there she was placed on the Slip. The following repairs were effected : A sheathing-plate, 5 ft. by 2 ft. 6 in., was fitted on the port side of the hull-plating under the engine-room, and about twenty rivets were renewed; the rudder was unshipped, the shank straightened, and a new boss welded on the rudder quadrant; both outer bushes for propeller-shafts were relined, and a new set of propellerblades were fitted to starboard propeller. rune 12 . .

Date of Survey. Name of Vessel. Where surveyed. Nature of Casualty, <fcc. 1911. lune 28 S.s. Turakina Wellington On the 25th June, 1911, whilst berthed at the Glasgow Wharf, Wellington, a slight crack was discovered in the main steam-pipe. The pipe was taken ashore, the defective portion was cut out, and a new piece 20 in. long was fitted and brazed in. The pipe after repairs was tested to 400 lb. hydraulic pressure before being placed in position again. This vessel arrived at Auckland on the 1st July, 1911, from Brisbane, and when berthing against the set of the tide she fouled the corner of the wharf. On examination it was found that two of the frames were slightly set in, one plate dented, and a number of rivets loosened. Forty-six rivets were renewed. On the 30th March, 1911, on a voyage from Cardiff to Talcahuana, the stern-gland was broken and the liner on the stern-shaft cracked circumferentially. This was caused through overheating. Temporary repairs were effected, and on arrival at Talcahuana a band was forged and put round the gland to bind it together. On the return voyage to Newoast e, New South Wales, the vessel met bad weather and put into Wellington for coal and repairs. The condenser had commenced to leak on the 30th June, and on arrival it was tested and the tube-plate joints found to be leaking; these were rejointed, and the condenser repacked. The vessel's stern was tipped, the spare propeller and shaft fitted, and a new stern-gland made and fitted. This vessel was on a voyage from London to Wellington on the 19th June, 1911, about 10 p.m., when the crown of the combustion-chamber in the port-wing of the forward port boiler came down between 4 in. and 5 in., and the plate was torn away from the girder-stays. This boiler was disabled, but the vessel continued the voyage with the remaining boilers. On arrival in Wellington an examination was made, and it was found necessary to cut out and renew the defective crown. This was done, and all the girder-stays were renewed. The buckled plates at the back and sides of the combustion-chamber were straightened, the two top rows of tubes and two rows of screwed waterspace stays round the combustion-chamber were renewed. The landings were reriveted and caulked where necessary. On the 28th July, 1911, this vessel was steaming up to the wharf at Napier when she struck the end of it and fractured her stem, doing damage to seven of her frames and to four hull-plates. The broken portion of the stem was straightened and fitted with butt-straps on each side—9 ft. long by 10 in. by g in.—and all the damaged plates were cut out and renewed. The broken portions of the frames were cut and replaced with Z bars. A gusset-plate was fitted on the inside behind the fractured stem to strengthen it. In addition to the above work carried out in Napier the following repairs were made in Port Chalmers. Twenty feet of the stem was renewed 10J in. by 3 in. One frame on the starboard side and six on the port side were renewed 9 ft. long by 5 in. by 3 in. by f in. Several reverse bars and gusset-plates were fitted, and the following hull-plates renewed : On the port side a shear strake-plate 8 ft. bv 4 ft. 6 in. by in.; M strake, a plate 14 ft. by 3 ft. 6 in. by T 7 ff in.; L strake, a plate 10 ft. by 3 ft. by T 7 S in.: and on the starboard side, M strake, one plate 5 ft. by 3 ft. 6 in. by in.; L strake, one plate 6 ft. by 3 ft. by T 7 S in. During the trip from Auckland to Whangarei on 1st August, 1911, and when in Rangitoto Channel, the "Vesper" collided with the s.s. " Oceano." The jib-boom, bobstay, &c, were carried away. The vessel returned to Auckland and had a new jib-boom and all the necessary gear fitted. This vessel was proceeding up Rangitoto Channel on the 1st August, 1911, during the voyage from San Francisco to Auckland, when she collided with the o.e.v. " Vesper." On arrival in Auckland an examination was made, when she was found to have sustained no material damage. On the 9th August, 1911, when three miles north of Kennedy Bay, on a voyage from Gisborne to Auckland, the Orete's propeller struck some unseen object, breaking the tailshaft and losing her propeller. The vessel proceeded under sail, and on arrival in Auckland a new propeller and shaft were fitted. During the voyage of this vessel from Auckland to Wellington on the 19th August, 1911, a crack was detected in the bend of the main steam-pipe. On arrival in Wellington the pipe was taken ashore for repairs. About 5 ft. of the pipe was renewed and one new flange fitted. The pipe was then tested to 360 lb. hydraulic pressure. luly 5, 7 ..

Date of Survey. Name of Vessel. Where surveyed. Nature of Casualty, &c. 1911. .ug. 28 S.s. Cape Breton Dunedin This vessel was on a voyage from New York to Dunedin, via Durban, when on the 2nd August, 1911, a joint on the steering-gear rod carried away, straining three others and bending the pins. The vessel was encountering heavy weather at the time. On the 6th August 180 ft. of waterservice pipes and connections on deck were carried away, and the deck-house doors were stove in. On arrival in Dunedin new joints were made of heavier material and welded to the steering-gear rods. New water-service pipes and connections were also fitted. This vessel had arrived from London at the mouth of the Tamar River, Tasmania, and on the 24th July, 1911, was proceeding to Beauty Point under charge of a pilot when she went aground. She came off the same day by using her own engine and with the assistance of a tug. After discharging part of her cargo she proceeded to Port Chalmers and was docked there for examination. It was found that the E and L strakes on the port side were dented and a number of rivets started, .19 ft. of the bilge-keel was buckled, and several smaller dents were noticeable on the bottom. Twenty-five rivets were renewed at the junction of the E and L strakes of hull-plating. When moving ship in Gisborne Harbour on the 1st September, 1911, this vessel struck the wharf with her rudder, twisting and bending the rudder-stock. On arrival in Lyttelton the rudder was unshipped, straightened, and examined and found to have no flaws in it. The quadrant was keyed on square with the rudder, and the whole replaced. On the 13th September, 1911, on a voyage from Nelson to Collmgwood, via Bays and ports, this vessel touched a rock in Bark Bay. She was going dead slow at the time and did not lose any way. On her return to Nelson she was placed on the hard for examination. It was found that the rolling-chocks on each side amidships had been chafed slightly, but otherwise the vessel was undamaged. On the 14th September, 1911, whilst crossing the Patea Bar on a voyage from Wellington, this vessel took a sheer and struck the eastern wall of the breakwater. A southerly gale was blowing at the time. The lower part of the stem was twisted, two plates badly dented and cracked, and two plates slightly dented. The vessel returned to Wellington and was placed on the Slip. About 8 ft. of the stem was renewed, and two new hull-plates fitted on both sides of her stem. This vessel was shifting from the Taranaki Street Wharf to the Glasgow Wharf, in Wellington Harbour, on the 20th September, 1911, during a strong gale of wind. On nearing the Glasgow Wharf she dropped her anchor, but the wind caught her broadside on and slewed the vessel round so that her rudder fouled the wharf. The rudder-shank was twisted 40 degrees, and the steering-gear chains strained. A new end was welded on the rudder-shank, the hole in the quadrant trued out, and the shank refitted. All new chains on the port and one length on the starboard side were fitted, and two lengths of chain on the starboard side repaired. This vessel was on a voyage from Dunedin to Sydney. On the 30th September, 191.1, at Port Chalmers, a double intermediate main and auxiliary steam stop-valve chest on the port side burst. A new stop-valve chest was made and fitted. On the 9th October, 1911, as this vessel was entering the Bluff Harbour, on a voyage from Melbourne, the port propellor struck a patch of rock in the fairway, breaking off part of one of the blades. No repairs were necessary as the vessel had received no material damage. During the voyage of this vessel from Bunbury to Bluff, on the 14th September, 1911, it was noticed that the propeller was slack on the shaft, caused probably by the racing of the engines in heavy weather. The vessel was docked at Port Chalmers, when it was found that the propeller-shaft was damaged by the working of the propeller. A new port-propeller shaft was fitted. This vessel was moving away from the wharf at Napier, on the 17th October, 1911, for Westport, when, after swinging, the ebb tide set her stern on to the wharf, which was struck by the propeller, injuring all the blades. The vessel came on to Wellington, and was placed on the Slip and a new propeller fitted, ug. 28, 29 S.s. Waiwera Dunedin Sept. 5, 6 S.s. Petone Lyttelton Sept. 15 S.s. Hina Nelson Sept. 16 S.s.

': Wellington Dunedin Lyttelton Auckland Dunedin Wellington and Port Chalmers i al n i a : EB6I n d On the 2nd June, 1911, this vessel was crossing the Westport >rs Bar, on a voyage from Nelson, when she was disabled b} 7 the rudder-head carrying away just below the trunkway, through a heavy sea striking the rudder, and a defect in the welding. After the rudder was disabled the vessel was kept going ahead, and managed to get inside the retaining-walls. The anchor was dropped, but the strong current in the river carried the stern of the vessel round and it struck the retaining-wall, breaking the stern-post at the bottom of the aperture, and starting the hull plating and rivets under the stern-tube. The vessel was towed to Wellington, and placed on the Slip for examination. It was then decided to send her to Port Chalmers for repairs. On arrival there she was docked and the following repairs made to the vessel. A new rudder-post and rudder were made and fitted. Eight hull-plates were taken off to allow of the new post being fitted, six were replaced, and two defective plates were renewed. Thirty-two rivets in the forepart of the vessel were renewed. A new propellershaft and a new set of propeller-blades were fitted. This vessel took the ground at Tarakohe Wharf, on the 3rd November, 1911, during a gale. On examination of the hull it was found that the butts and seams were strained. The jib-boom was broken and the rudder damaged. The butts and the planking were refastened, and also caulked where necessary. A new rudder and jib-boom were also fitted. . . I On the 8th November, 1911, when entering the Wairoa River, on a voyage from Napier, this vessel struck a beam which was projecting from a pile of the old breastwork, making a 12 in. by 9 in. hole in her port side. The water gained entrance at this hole and the vessel sank. At low water temporary repairs were effected, the water was pumped out, and the vessel was refloated on the 9th. She returned to Napier, where permanent repairs were effected. Three new planks were fitted to hull. . . ! During the voyage of this vessel from Nelson to Waitapu, on the 12th November, 1911, in Blind Bay, a leak was discovered at the back end of the furnace-tube, where it is connected to the combustion-chamber plating, near the edge of an old patch. On arrival in Nelson a small plate was fitted on either side of the thin portion. .. On a trip from Coromandel to Auckland, on the 9th November, 1911, when about five miles off Cow and Calf Rocks, this vessel's crank-shaft broke. The vessel was towed to Auckland, where a new after-web was forged and fitted to the crank-shaft. . . i On the 24th November, 1911, when crossing the Manawatu ■ Bar, on a voyage from Greymouth to Foxton, this vessel struck the bottom and carried her rudder away. She drifted over to the North Spit and grounded, breaking most of her propeller-blades. The cause of the accident was insufficient water on the bar. The vessel remained aground until the 28th November, when she was refloated, after jettisoning about 12 tons of coal, and proceeded to Foxton. The damaged rudder was unshipped and forwarded to Wellington, where a new one was made to replace it. Two new sets of propeller-blades were also fitted. On the 24th November, 1911, this vessel was proceeding from the fishing-ground off Taiaroa Heads to Dunedin, and when inside Otago Heads the L.P. bottom-end connectingrod bolts broke, causing the breaking of the cylinder-cover and piston. This vessel was on a voyage from Kaiapoi to Foxton. On the 28th November, 1911, when crossing the Foxton Bar. she grounded, carrying away the rudder-post and the bottom of propeller-aperture. This vessel was proceeding up the Ohinemuri River on a voyage from Auckland to Paeroa, on the 12th December, 1911, when she struck the river-bank and strained her forefoot. She completed the voyage to Paeroa and then returned to Auckland, where she was docked for examination and repairs. It was found necessary to fit a gravingpiece into the forefoot. On the 29th December, 1911, as this vessel was passing Quarantine Island, Otago Harbour, on a voyage from Bluff to Dunedin, she touched a rock on the port side, denting her bottom in way of Nos. 1 and 2 ballast-tanks and engine-room spaces. There was a strong ebb tide running, and a fresh south-west breeze blowing at the time, which interfered with the vessel's steering and caused her to take a sheer towards the island. On arrival at Dunedin a survey was made, and, as the vessel was not seriously damaged, she was allowed to proceed to Lyttelton for docking and further survey. It was there found necessary to renew fifty-six rivets in the hull and sixty in the bilgekeel on the, port side of the vessel, ov. 3 Gannet (ketch) .. Nov. 11, 12.. S.s. Tangaroa Nov. 13 S.s.

Wellington Wellington On the 24th December, 1911, when proceeding from Dunedin to Gisborne, it was discovered that the furnace-crowns of the after starboard boiler had come down. It was decided to come to Wellington for repairs. An examination was made of the furnaces, when it was found that the starboard and centre furnaces were down 4| in. and 5 in. respectively. The port furnace was also down a little. A further examination was made of the other boilers, when it was found that the centre furnace of the centre after - boiler was down 1\ in. The examination of the furnaces showed that they had been overheated by an accumulation of scale in the boilers. The furnaces were set back to their original form, and the boilers were afterwards tested to 270 lb. hydraulic pressure. Whilst lying at the Lyttelton Wharf, on the 8th January, 1912, it was noticed that a portion of the main steam-pipe of this vessel had worn thin in two places, through the vibration of the pipe where suspended in the hangers. Two small patches were brazed over the thin places, and the pipe was afterwards tested to 360 lb. hydraulic pressure. During the voyage of this vessel from Lyttelton to Wellington, on the 8th January, 1912, at 8-45 p.m., it was discovered that the thrust-block was fractured, the vessel being then about thirty miles from Lyttelton. The vessel returned to Lyttelton under easy steam. The thrustbearing was repaired by fitting a flanged plate round the end of bearing and bolting it over the broken part. On the 11th January, 1912, this vessel was lying at the Glasgow Wharf when a defect was noticed in a length of the main steam-pipe, where it had chafed against the hanger. A small patch was brazed over the thin place on the pipe, and the pipe was afterwards tested to 360 lb. hydraulic pressure. This vessel was proceeding from Lyttelton to Dunedin, on the 13th January, 1912, and when off Akaroa Peninsula the H.P.-cylinder finer became loose. On examination it was found that the studs which held the liner in position were broken. Temporary repairs were effected, and on the vessel's arrival in Dunedin a ring was fitted between the cylinder-cover and liner and secured to the liner by pinning. This kept the liner securely in position. On the 27th January, 1912, on a trip from Greymouth to Gisborne, when off Farewell Spit, the circulating-pump foot-valve carried away. The thread on the valve-seat had become worn and eventually stripped. After the accident the bucket was drawn and the donkey-pump used for circulating the water. The vessel came on to Wellington for repairs, where a new valve-seat was made and fitted. On the 21st January, 1912, this vessel was leaving Westport for Lyttelton, when a strong tide caused her to sheer and touch the end of the east half-tide training-wall at Westport. The hull on the port side was damaged, several plates were dented, a number of rivets were started, and the rolling-chock was bent. The vessel was docked at Port Chalmers, when the following repairs were carried out : On B strake 3 ft. of the seam was caulked, on C strake five rivets were renewed, the butt-strap on the after length of the rolling-chock was reriveted, and the broken cement in fore-bilges was renewed. As this vessel was crossing the Karamea Bar, on a trip to Wellington, on the 10th January, 1912, she was struck by a blind roller and went aground on the Bar, but came off again immediately. The rudder, rudder-post, part of keel and propeller were damaged. Temporary repairs were made, and the vessel came on to Wellington. The following repairs were effected to the vessel : A new rudder and a new rudder-post were fitted, and 7 ft. of the keel was renewed. A new gun-metal propeller and tail-shaft were fitted, and the stern-bush was relined. On the trip from Greymouth to Lyttelton, when off Farewell Spit, on the 14th February, 1912, very heavy weather was encountered. The main topmast was carried away above and close to the rigging-band. Temporary repairs were carried out at Lyttelton to enable the vessel to come to Wellington, where a new mast was fitted. On the 2nd February, 1912, on a trip from Foxton to Wellington, and when off Terawhiti, this vessel struck some submerged object. On arrival in Wellington an examination was made, when it was found that the vessel had sustained no damage. Jan. 9 S.s. Paparoa .. Lyttelton Jan. 9, 10 S.s. Mararoa . . Lyttelton Jan. 12 S.s.

On the 11th March, 1912, an examination was being made of the crank-shaft of the main engines when the vessel was lying at the Auckland wharf. It was noticed that there was a flaw running circumferentially round the H.P. crank-pin. The crank-shaft was taken out of the vessel and cut through at the after web of H.P. crank, and a new built H.P. crank was made. This was shrunk and keyed on to the old shaft. The shaft was relined up, and the engines tried under steam on completion of repairs.
