AMENDED DIRECTIONS FOR ENTERING MORETON BAY.
Notice is hereby given, that in consequence of the further growth westward of the East Bank, vessels entering at night, after opening out the Comboyuro Point Light, must steer to the westward until the Tangaluma Light is open to the west- ward of Cowan Cowan, a distance equal to the difference between their heights.
On leaving the port, the same distance between the leading lights must be kept, from the time of passing the line of Cape Moreton and the Yellow Patch Light, until Cape Moreton Light is open northward of the Yellow Patch Light, a distance equal to twice the difference between their heights. A course may then be steered to the N.N.E. to pass the floating beacon, and into the red sector.
