155: Offence to proceed on voyage in certain circumstances
You could also call this:
"Don't sail if it's not safe: a rule about when barges can set sail"
If you are in charge of a barge, you must know that there is a rule about when you can set sail.
This rule is part of the Maritime Transport Act 1994, which has laws about boats and ships in New Zealand.
You can find more information about the laws that changed this rule in section 187.
This particular rule, called section 155, is no longer in effect because it was repealed on 2 February 1998.
You do not have to worry about following this rule because it is not part of the law anymore.
It was initially set to expire on 1 February 1998, but it was officially repealed the next day.
