Alaska Gulf Tug
Sights Soviet Ship
ANCHORAGE, UP — An Amer
ican tug skipper says he and the
officers of a Russian trawler gave
each other’s vessels the once-over
through binoculars deep in the
Gulf of Alaska.
It was the first time he had
sighted a foreign vessel so close
to the Alaskan shore, Capt. Tom
King reported Wednesday. He
said he spotted the 600-ton traw
ler Monday about 90 miles south
of Seward and scanned it. “They
were looking me over too,” he
said.
King, a veteran tug captain, was
on a monthly trip from Seattle
to Anchorage.
He said the Soviet ship had fish
ing gear in the water. It was drift
ing on the edge of the Portlock
Bank, a halibut fishing ground.
King said he saw 11 or 12 crew
men.
The vessel was described as 200
feet long with h red band encir
cling a black stack. It had a gold
hammer and sickle insignia with
in the band.
It is reported the Navy had been
keeping its eye on the trawler for
the past 10 days. The trawler’s ac
tivities are described as routine,
although it is noted the Soviets
had never operated in the Gulf
before.
There is nothing to prevent ves
sels of other nations from operat
ing near the U. S. shoreline as long
as they observe the three-mile
limit.
