The Danascot was built at Shanghal. She is not a very large vessel, being 27 feet over-all. She was modelled from the old-type Danish pilot boat and is junk rig- ged. The boat is sturdily built and broad beamed. Her skipper, Captain Jorgensen is a Shanghai pilot.

There have now been five cross

ings to Japan. The arst was made in 1930 by the Chelidon. In 1931. the Chelidon and Nidaros raced against each other. Last year the Chelidon made her second solo trip. On each of her voyages she has been captained by Mr. H. Aust. The Danascot made her initial trip across this year, and it is a great credit to her skipper that the voyage should have been made In a record time from Shanghai half to Nagasaki in four and a days.
