A ROUGH EXPERISNOE. pkr press associate:-. Christchubch, September 17. The three men who were blown out to sea in an open boat from Motuanu on Sunday, turned up at Gore Bay, Cheviot, safely on Sunday in a very exhausted condition. It appears they were blown out by a very strong westerly gale, and when many miles off shore the wind went round to eastward and blew then) towards shore, and they eventually landed 13 miles further up 1 the coast than Motuanu. The Lyttelton Harbour Board's tug was out all Monday afternoon searching for the boat, and had a very rough time, having great difficulty in returning to Lyttelton against the high wind.
