This is the first time that the Southland has been engaged in a. towing enterprise and she fully came up to the mostP<iangume expectations. The Tarawera wis no ordinary tow, the vessel having hntiom’ f° r a ? umber of years, and her bottom from stem to stern was covered a v f s ? Q uan tity of marine growth such as kelp and barnacles. The tow commenced at 3.15 a.m., on Tuesday frZ Port Chalmers, and finished at the destmation mentioned at 8 p.m., the same +*, Fine Y eather was experienced .coast to time of arrival, the Southland moving along at about halfspeed. A most creditable performance when the foul bottom of the Tarawera is taken into consideration. The Tarawera was a single screw vessel of 1,994 tons, built at Dumbarton in 1882 by Messrs. YVm. Denny and Bros., for the Union Company. She at once became one of the favourite inter-colonial passenger boats and remained so until the early years of the present century, gradually being replaced by larger and more up-to-date vessels. For many years she was the chosen vessel to make the annual excursions to the West Coast Sounds. These trips were always well patronised, and some years the Tarawera had to make double trips to cope with the number of excursionists anxious to view the beauties of the Sounds. But age tells, and the one time proud Tarawera is now moored in Paterson Inlet to serve as a coal-hulk for the Ross Sea Whaling Company. Captain Lindsay, of the Bluff Harbour Board, and who is master of the Southland, was at one tixne master of the Tarawera, and always speaks in affectionate terms of his old ship.
