Across The Sea Kayak Adventure Ends in Tragedy
Seattle youth James Brinton, 25, a Seattle Community College student and Army Vietnam veteran, embarked alone from La Push to kayak across the Pacific to Japan. His 17-foot craft, loaded with provisions, was found intact about four miles off the Olympic Peninsula after heavy seas and strong winds. Despite searches by Coast Guard aircraft, a cutter, and local boats, officials say survival chances were slim. Brinton, an accomplished swimmer and Eagle Scout, had planned a three month journey and dreamed of becoming a teacher.
