William Willis, 71, Pacific raft voyager, left Australia on January 16 to return to the United States after four months in the Commonwealth. His wife, who flew to Australia after Willis finished his epic “float”, was with him.
They plan to remain on the US west coast till about mid- February, and then go on to New York to arrive about the same time as the raft, Age Unlimited, which was shipped from Australia in December.
Willis hopes to make a triumphant entry into New York in his raft, and then put it on exhibition at the New York World Fair.
Willis hopes Age Unlimited will finish up in one of three museums with which he is negotiating.
