A number of exceptional repairs were carried out at Gap Rock, The cable, which was severed during the typhoon of the 29th September, 1906, was repaired in the early part of the year by the insertion of a new shore end at Gap Rock, communication being restored on the 9th January. Special measures were adopted to prepare a bed for the cable and secure it in the best possible position so as to obviate as far as possible a repetition of the fracture. The iron shutters to the windows of the Lightkeepers' Quarters at Gap Rock having decayed, 9 pairs of these were replaced by new shutters made of Muntz metal. Finally, a number of new panels were inserted in the lantern, the old ones having been damaged by storms.
