Yacht Ship 240' Warrior World Cruise Williams 1927 Feature

This is a very interesting piece and tells of a very long world cruise in 1926/27.

"......Leaving Tebo's Dock in Brooklyn on Saturday, November 27, 1926, the Warrior headed direct for Naples, Italy, where the owner, Mr. Harrison Williams, planned to join the boat.  "For five days the sea was moderate and the weather fair. We made the usual speed of 12.8 miles. At the end of this time the sea roughened and the ship rolled from 20 to 25 degrees. So we started the stabilizer, bringing it into service for the first time in mid-Atlantic..........We again used the stabilizer when passing Gibraltar and shortly before our arrival at Naples, where the sea is frequently worse than in the Atlantic........From Port Said we proceeded through the Red Sea to Jibuti.....On the trip from Jibuti via Colombo, Madras, Rangoon, to Singapore, the sea remained calm...But from Singapore, via Saigon, to Hong Kong the stabilizer was used almost continually...The Warrior ended the world cruise in Hing Kong because of the political troubles and distirbances in China. So we left there for New York, via Honolulu and the Panama Canal, on March 30, 1927.....WArrior was designed by Cox & Stevens of New York, and is 240 feet in Length."
