We find that the ship proceeded at 7.12 p.m. from a position about 3' S. 85 E (true) from Waglan at 10 knots under the personal direc- tion of the Master on a course N 34 W true. Owing to the obstruc- tion caused by flshing craft it was necessary for the ship to be con- stantly under helm and at one point had to completa a full turn of 32 points.

further difficulty to A navigation was experienced owing to the glare of "bright light" Ash- ing-lights the eastward of Talthong Point. The Master ap- pears to have been fully confident of his capabilities, due to many years of local experience, to navi gate his ship "by eye" from Waglan to Hong Kong. As Talthong Point Hop & Co.

2 bearing should have been taken. This would have shown at once that the ship was running into danger.

We are therefore of opinion that Mr. Valentine McClymond Liddell, due to not taking any bearings be- tween 7.12 p.m. and 8.1 p.m. strand- ed his ship by default and we there- fore adjudge him to be severely · → primanded.
