The Kakanui’e last trip from Dunedin to Invercargill was an eventful one. On opening out the Otago Heads it was found that a very heavy sea was running on the bar. After taking one of these rollers in safety she broached to and got into the trough of tbs sea. The next roller completely buried her* the water running down the funnel, causing considerable damage in the engine room and captain’s cabin. Fortunately the veriel recovered herself, and succeeded in petting on to the seas again. Some deck Cargo was cot adrift, but only a small portion went overboard. The mate, who was steering, nanowiy escaped being washed overboard.
