THE INDRABARAH.
SURVEYED IN DOCK.
EXTENSIVE DAMAGE REPORTED.
Dunedin, July 29.
The ludrabarah was put in dock to day for survey and inspection;
Her rudder is badly twisted throughout the entire length, and about ten feet of the lower end has been carried away altogether. The blades of both propellers are broken off about half way. It is-understood that some of the frames and hull plates, from No. 3 hatch aft, are ‘‘set up" in several places sufficiently to crack the cement lining of the floors. Several inter-coastal frames are said to have worked free from the rivets in places, and in No. 3 hold many rivets have been sheared off from the stanchion bases.
It is also feared that a good deal of damage has been done under the alter peak ballast tanks. It is believed that the work of repairing the Indrabarah will be the largest undertaking of the kind put in hand at Port Chalmers.
