NOTICE TO MARINERS.
The following has been received at Lloyd's :
VICTORIA.—(PORT PHILIP).
FLOATING LIGHTSHIP, HOBSON'S BAY.
A floating light is established at the north end of the
West Channel leading into Port Philip Bay, in the same
position as that hitherto occupied by the North Fairway
buoy, which is now removed,
The lightship is painted red, and exhibits, between sun-
set and sunrise, two (2) bright lights, twenty-four (24) feet
apart, and fifty (50) feet above the level of the water.
These lights may be seen from all parts of the horizon
within the distance of nine (9) miles in clear weather.
Vessels approaching the lightship by night or by day ars
warned to be cautious in avoiding collision.
The lightship is moored in four (4) fathoms at low water,
with the following magnetic bearings :
Extreme point of Indented Head, NWiN.
Summit of Arthur's Seat, SEE.
Extremity of Point Nepean, SSWiW.
ANONYMA ROCK, IN PORT PHILIP BAT.
Commanders of vessels working up the east side of Port
Philip Bay are requested to take notice that a chequered
buoy has been placed upon the Eight Foot Rock off the
Red Bluff, which has been ascertained to lie nearly two (2)
miles closer in shore than the position assigned to it in the
charts. Commanders are recommended to notice the fol-
lowing bearings, and lay the rock's position down on their
charts :

Magnetic Position of the Anonyma Rock.
Lighthouse, Gellibrand's Point, NIViN.
Centre of the Red BlufF, E by S.
A small white cliff, some distance north of the Red
Bluff, NE. E.
The Anonyma Rock lies a mile off shore, the least water
on it being eight (8) feet at low tide, with five (5) fathoms
just outside, and a clear passage half a mile on the inside
of it with three (3) and four (4) fathoms, sandy bottom.
CORSAIR ROCK.
A dangerous rock, with only eleven (11) feet of water
over it at low tide, has recently been discovered nearly
three-quarters of a mile west of Point Nepean. It is not
laid down in any of the charts of this port. Commanders
of vessels navigating between the Heads aro requested to
observe the following marks in order to avoid the said rock
(which will hereafter be known as the " Corsair Rock "),
and are recommended to lay down its position on their
charts as given underneath.
Magnetic Position of the Centre of the Corsair Rock.
Upper Lighthouse on Shortland's Bluff, N. 21 E.
Middle of the Rocky Islet off Point Nepean, N. 87 E.
Tidal Flagstaff on Point Lonsdale, N. 76 W.

The above rock is about twenty (20) feet in diameter;
the least water found over it at low tide is eleven (11) feet,
with three (3), four (4), and five (5) fathoms water all
round.
There is a clear passage between the Corsair Rock and
the extreme end of Nepean Reef of about a cable's length,
with three (3), four (4), and five (5) fathoms of water; but
no vessel should ever attempt it. as the tide, both ebb and
flood, sets with great force on Nepean Reef.
