Since departing the U.S.A. on May 3, I960, un- til January I962: We have travelled ninety-seven thousand two hundred and twenty-seven nautical miles, or far enough to have sailed around the world three and one-half times. The total Eversole At Sea time amounts to six thousand six hundred and eighty-three hours. To all landlubbers this would work out to about eighteen miles per hour for an average speed maintained during our cruise. This feat required 5,931,644 gallons of fuel oil, LISYICS, approximately sixty gallons per mile. Had Those gallons of fuel been gasoline, you could have reasonably driven a new automobile from San Francisco to New York City and back I7,I06 times. During our time in the Far East one million eight hundred seventy-nine thousand seven hundred and ThlFTY-OHS gallons of fresh water were manufactured on board from salt sea Waier a by the crew for showers and drinking as well as cooking and feeding the four thirsty ship's boilers, C b ' rew mem ers, also thirsty, purchased Over one nd was consumed hundred sixty-one thousand two hundred and thirty- one soft drinks from the ship's vending machine. The Eversole's generators could easily supply electrical power for a city with a population of ten thousand. Nine thousand eight hundred and twenty- two light bulbs burned out around the ship during the cruise. Well over thirty seven thousand eight hundred steak dinners were served aboard and Eversole sailors downed more than thirty thousand five hundred loaves of bread, for a combined total of over one hundred and twenty thousand meals during our stay in the Far East. Ordering the various necessary supplies and pouring out omcial mail, the Eversole consumed over four tons of paper. The crew was paid over half a million dollars, bought four million cigarettes, got over ten thousand haircuts and had one hundred tons of clothing washed and dried. We have been through all this since May 3, I96O and believe us-we are sure glad to be homeward bound. 80-
