The result of the preliminary inquiry in- to the wreck of the B. I. S. N, Coy's 8.5 "Secundra" at Galle was that Pilot Con. ningham was called upon to answer a charge of culpable negligence or a grave error of judgment.. The inquiry found that the pilot was incapable. In answer to the charge, at a subsequent inquiry, Pilot Cun ningham attributed the wreck to abnormal current.
When asked to give his opinion whether Galle harbour was dangerous for navigating in the night, Pilot Cunningham said that the vessels should not be allowed to go out in the night. Bell buoys and the Kada rocks should be lighted, and the Para rocks should also be buoyed, so that the pilot may know exactly where he is going. thought it safer to have gas bunys,
