Haines, who is going to |2ttempt to beat steamer time from | Tuneau to Seattle in the spring in a 13-foot sea sled motor power, when asked as to the dangers involved, replied that he did nst consider the risks of the venture as a great personal hasard That every possible de ta’l going be thoroughly worked out before the actual start frem Juneau is shown by the fact that at this early date the motors and ‘the boat have been decided upon and they, with other equip ment will be shipped from the East as soon as some more minor details are settled. An inflated air life raft, distress signals and emergency food sup- plies, are to be carried on the trip, expected to take about 55 hours from start to finish. The sea sled type boat will have a speed of 24 miles ‘an hour fully loaded, which speed will enable Haines to gain a good margin over any steamer as long as fair weath er is experienced and mechanical trouble does not force the little boat out of the running. Thic is not likely as Haines has had considerable experience in rac- ing also having made the long cruise north last summer in an outboard motored boat. The trip, according to Mr Haines, will be commercialized only as a last resort. He said that it is his intention to carry some legend boosting Juneau and the country on the boat, which, of course, would be in the news reel pictures. and all other publicity that is given the adventure.
