Q And with the Chandler? A Five or six when it was loaded. Q And with the Black boat? A It was in between there; it wasn't quite as fast as the Chandler boat, little faster than the " Punkin Seed". Q What months of the year would you say that the figures which you have just given me would be applicable? A To the speed? Q Yes. A I think it would be for any month of the year high or low.
