Little Alaska Steamer Traveled Toward San Francisco in Storm
In a January gale the Dora drifted south from the Aleutians toward San Francisco as engine failures limited maneuverability. Capt Moon directed the vessel toward Saragtle while storms and currents hindered progress. Crew used seawater for cooking and the ship’s status remained precarious with possible repairs underway. Commander Moore claimed this was the North Pole season’s earliest voyage of its kind.
