Three Families
W ill Set Sail for
Koiind World Trip
SEATTLE IT — “This is some
thin'; I’ve waited a long time to
do," said Lee Leslie of Silverton,
Ore. “I’ve wanted to go back and
set1 the places I’ve seen before and
a lot of places I’ve never seen.”
I That is the reason the Leslies
; and two other families will set
I sail at 8:30 a.m. Thursday for a
| round-the-world trip that could
; last from a year to 10 years.
Their plans are just that in
definite.
Mr. and Mrs. Leslie and their
two children. Jade, 1(5, and Jeff,
12; Mr. and Mrs. Jack Elsbree
and son, Steve, of Seattle; and
Kay and Jack Tyson of Seattle
will make up the crew. There are
! also two dogs and a cat.
Their ship is the Kin:; ,1- Win*; \
a 143-ton sailing vessel that served
as a pilot boat on the Columbia
from 1924 until 1948 and before
that service in Alaska waters as a
rum-runner, Alaskan trader and
halibut fishing vessel. It has an
engine by Elsbree, who bought
the vessel last September, restored
the original sailing rig to save
fuel.
Leslie quit his job last week as
a draftsman in the Marion County
(Salemi Ore. assessor’s office to
make the trip. Before that he
served in the U.S. Navy and re
tired in 1952.
The ship will head first up the
inland passage for Ketchikan,
Alaska.
“We haven’t decided on a de
finite schedule,” Leslie said.
“We’re going up to Alaska until
the people get used to living on
board. I made the trip once in the
Navy, from Seattle to Cape Spen
cer and its a beautiful one.”
From there they’ll head across
the Pacific with no definite plans.
