Docking a boat is easier than
parking a car because you can
make the forces of nature help
you, say Mercury outboard ex
perts. Try to approach against
the force applying most pres
sure on your boat, be it wind or
current. If this force flows par
allel to the dock, come in against
it, bow angled toward the dock
slightly. Shift to reverse to stop
and secure the bow line. Your
stern will swing toward the dock,
and you can tie up aft. With an
off-the-dock wind, approach
head on, stopping a few feet
from the dock. Secure the bow
line, then power the stern into
place. When the wind’s astern,
come close and parallel to the
dock, then drift into place. If
you must approach with the
wind, drive parallel to the dock
and secure the stern line first.
The wind will push your bow
into place.

Easterner Sees Alaska-By Bike
The bearded young man re
placing a tire on his bicycle
answered the questions bein«
put to him by the curious re
porter pleasantly but matter
of-factly. Yes, he had taken
quite a trip on his fragile-look
ing man-powered vehicle.
How far? From w'here? (The
only visible gear besides the
bicycle was a sleeping bag and
a worn but very clean knap
sack.)
From Seattle. Got into An
chorage last April. Spent a
month on the road. Been tour
ing the Kenai Peninsula since
then got over to Kodiak, too
(had to forsake the bike for
that trip). More or less on the
way home now.
You’d think, to hear Lewis I
Nelson, a native of New Hamp
shire, talk, people were biking
up and down the 2500 miles of
Alaska Highway every day. |
Spending some time in Pal
mer last Monday to repair his ,
bicycle, Nelson said he was on
his way to Talkeetna to view
the eclipse next Saturday.
“I'll ride the bike as far as I
Sunshine. Then I'll either
catch the train to Talkeetna or
walk up the tracks,” he said. [
From Talkeetna he plans to
make connections with the
highway being constructed
south from Fairbanks, and
after sightseeing there will
start south, by way of the
Taylor Highway and Dawson
City.
Nelson came to Alaska by
way of Prince Rupert and the
Malaspina ferry, in an attempt
to see as much as possible of
the state
What inspired the trip?
“Wanted to come here eve*
since I was so high,” measur
ing a couple of feet off the
ground.
Now that he’s seen it what
does he think of Alaska?
“’I like the people," he said.
"Nobody’s worried about the
Joneses.” He mentioned the in
terest his trip aroused in phy
sical fitness buffs. The report
er asked if he had heard about
the trip from Tacoma to Jun
eau by canoe, several years
ago, made by a group of youths
wrho were led by Dr. A. B.
Schultz, director of a Tacoma
boys’ camn
Yes, he had. Sounded like a
good trip.
A reflective gleam appeared
in his eye. “A canoe trip down
the Yukon," he speculated, ‘‘all
the way from its source to its
mouth—now that would be
something worth trying.”
But first things first. Tal
keetna in time for the eclipse
