Awahqu, a steamer of 400 tons carrying caoacity. The Awahou was built at Paisley in 1912 and is a twin-screw steel vessel, and tip till now has been runfling in the Wellington, Greymouth, Westport, and Foxton trades. This new. adjunct to the Richardson fleet will bo placed on .the East Coast sorvico. hetween Auokland and Gisborne in place" of the Kahu, which will lav up at Napier until the busy season. i wooden shallow-draught insulnted yesse'l. specially constructed at Te Kopuru for the Wniroa trade, is now having the oil engines installed prior to being taken over This craft will .ioin the 6orvice in about a month's time, and has carrying capacity for 180 carcases, and is also suitable for lightering or transhipping.
