SCHOONER “ARROW”
Trail Blazer
The first of the new halibut fleet to
register from Seward is the schooner
Arrow, Capt. C. Erlandsen. The Ar
row was built in Seattle last winter,
expressly for the halibut service, and
is schooner rigged, 68 feet long, with
80 h. p. C. O. Wickman Deisel engine.
Her maiden trip was made in May
when she arrived in Seward with a
cargo of 9,000 pounds of halibut for
the San Juan Fishing & Packing Co.
She is owned by C. Erlandsen and 0.
Venes.
Captain Erlandsen is a firm believ
er in the future of Seward.
“I came to Seward last fall in an
other boat,” he said in answer to the
question why he had selected the Gate
way City as his home port. “The wea
ther was wonderful and the scenery
surrounding the town was simply mag
nificent. That afternoon a friend and s
1 set out to see more of the natural J
beauty which had captivated us. Wei
contemplated a trip along the Kenai
Lake highway, and had come about to
the Seward Dairy when an elderly gen
tleman stopped and asked us if wei
would mind a ride with him. We were!
more than glad to accept his hospital- [
ity, and drove on to Woodrow, and
made a short stop, and then continued
to Mile 12. Here our host drew our
attention to a certain spring where
the following sign was displayed:
“Drink this water and you will live a
thousand years.” We all had a drink
and it taste dgood. Then we continued
along the road and about this time
my friend and I looked each other over
thinking of the distance we had plac
ed between ourselves and Seward. No
doubt our host read out thoughts for
he said, ‘Have no worry, gentlemen, I
shall take you back to where I picked
you up.’ So we continued on to the
end of the highway and then came
back to the Seward Dairy where we
all went in and refreshed ourselves on
the excellent milk and cream that the
proprietor served in plenty. In appre
ciation of this hospitality shown on
our first visit to Seward, I decided to
have the Arrow which we contemplat
ed building, registered in Seward anti
to make Seward her home port.
Seward welcomes Captain Erlandsen
and will endeavor to live up to the
standard of hospitality and good fel
lowship which impressed him on his ,
first visit.
