Vessel Aground
In Monday's Storm
Some anxious mometrbj were
felt by Alf Anderson, when his
fishmg vessel, the Alf-Jim, broke
away from her buoy in front of
the Kodiak Boat Works at 8:40
Monday morning during a wind
and rain storm.
The boat drifted in on the
reef approximately 500 feet to
wards town and about 300 feet off
shore. Hiram McAllister with the
Miss Arctic attempted to pull the
boat off but the vessel was wedg
ed in on the sharp rocks and re
fused to budge.
Monday night Marine Surveyor
Bill Damery made an inspection
at low tide but there was still
about five feet of water around
the vessel so nothing could be
done.
Tuesday morning Sergay Pes
trikoff with the Left Cape hooked ’
on co the bow of the AJf-Jim with
his winch and attempted to tow
it out, but the stern did not have
enough buoyancy. It was then
cided not to tow it out into deep
water, but it was instead pushed m
to the beach with the help of Jim
Pearson and Robert Christofersen
in a doi;y with an outboard.
At low, tide, Alf Anderson, Jim
I|earson and Robert Christofersen
filled the fish hold with oil drums.
At low tide Wednesday morning
they filled the foc’le and cabin
with oil drums.
Wednesday shortly before noon
the vessel was floated and the
Left Cape towed it to Alvine’s
Marine Repair that afternoon. It
is now in drydock.
On further inspection, Damery
reports the vessel will require a
new keel and several planks on
each side.

* '' ' >a
The next regular meeting of the
Kodiak Outdoorsmen will be, held
in the downtown school Tuesday,
beginning at 8 p.m.
■Club officers point out that al
most all other activities of the
club will be held in the clubhouse
at the Outdoorsmen Park. A wood
heater, loaned to the club some
time ago, is now the property of
the clubroom. “All that is needed
now is a few stars hung in the
ceilng—turn off the lights, and
you would think for all the world
you were sitting around a camp
fire in the woods,” according to
member Chuck Edris.
A small calibre firing, range
will soon be complete inside the
clubhouse, according to Edris.
“You can eat, shoot and be merry,
and never mind the snow and
wind outside,” he said.

are urged to attend the Tuesday
evening meeting. Interesting
topics and good entertainment and
refreshments are on the agenda.
