Craig-J, with Dayton J.
Lalonde, reached Sydney on May 26 after a Pacific crossing which commenced from Los Angeles on June 4, 1959.
Before her Sydney arrival, last word of this 20-ft. 0.a., 16-ft w.l.
Marconi ketch was that she had cleared Apia west-bound on March 20, and had advised PIM from Tahiti that she would call at Suva.
Following the yacht’s non arrival at Suva, the Marine authorities started inquires and found that Craig-J had called at Lomati village, Matuku Island, in the southern Lau group of Fiji, about April 9. They said the yacht had broken the Rhinoceros Beetle Regulations as well as the ordinary quaran tine regulations.
