Skipper.
From Our Own Correspondent
Thursday Is., March 28.
THE coast steamer “Wandana” (John Burke Line) is invariably a full ship now. She replaced the smaller “Kalla tina” at the beginning of last year, and both cargo and passenger space are fully taxed each monthly trip.
Her skipper has the reputation for keeping wonderfully well up to time, and, when it is remembered that a mis calculation regarding the time of the tides in the Gulf, where the vessel makes calls at Normanton and Burketown with their river bars, may mean a whole week’s delay, it can be seen what that means.
