SEA GALLS VETERAN IN' CHINESE JUNK Third Adventure in Small Craft Recalls Battles With Typhoons. By the Associated Press. VICTORIA, British Columbia, May 8. i ~—Capt. Robert Waard, typhoon tamer of the China Seas, s building another small boat for his third venturesome | trip across the Pacific Ocean this Sum- | mer. He started astounding sailors in 1922, when he sailed a small Chinese junk, the Amoy, from Hongkong to Victoria ' through a series of terrific typhoons and the fierce gales of the Aleutian Islands. ' ‘Then he guided the queer craft down coast- to the Panama Canal and up to New York Harbor. In 1931 he did it again, sailing the 60-foot boat Coquet through Winter scas this time, being storm-driven down to Honolulu before he reached Victoria. Engine to Aid Sail. This Spring he is building a 50- footer with an auxiliary engine to aid its 1,200 square fect of sail, and the engine is likely to be needed. During his first trip the Chinese sailors bat- tered down the hatches and stayed be- low during typhoons, later saying the junk “turned completely over” many times during these severe storms. On the second trip gales were so terrifying the crew quit at Honolulu. Waard, a veteran Dutch sealer, lost his vocation when the United States, Great Britain, Canada, Japan and Rus- sia signed a treaty protecting seals and forbidding deep-sea sealing. He mar- ried a Chinese wife, who, with their young son Bob, accompdnied him on the cruise of the Amoy. It frightened her so that she determined afterward to stay in her beauty shop at Kowloon While Waard defied the elements, Battle With Elements, The captain remained nonchalant about the hazards of his cruises, leaving it to the crew to tell how typhoons lashed his junk about, tearing away her anchor and rudder, and how in the sec- ond transpacific crossing the Coquet Tan aground on an uncharted island, was becalmed for many days and ran short of water. But he does like to talk about how he sailed into New York Harbor in his midget Oriental craft while such tre mendous’liners as the Leviathan, Mau. Tetania and Majestic saluted him with blasts of their sirens. After each voyage he bought a house in British Columbia and said his sail- ing days were over, but the lure of daredevil cruising proved too strong, and now he expects to try it again as 500n as the new craft is completed.
