NAUTICAL ENQUIRY ENDED.
WHALEBOATS IN COLLISION. Blenheim, Yesterday. Judgment in the Nautical Court inquiry into two collisions by rival whaling launches, commanded respectively by E. C. Perano and his brother, J. A. Perano, finds E. C. Perano guilty of careless navigation in both cases. The judgment states that whaling in itself is sufficiently exciting and hazardous without additional risks due to an endeavour of one party td beat the othre, and recommends the Marine Department to amend the rules of navigation, provided that where a launch is fast to a whale, the other craft shall not approach to within a quarter of a mile until the whale is secured. E. C. Perano was ordered to pay £25 towards the cost of the inquiry.
