To cross Allende On Pine Raft

MONTREAL. (CP)-Four Mon- treaiers. inspired by the saga of the Kon-Tiki. will try an Atlantic crossing on a 35-foot raft pushed by a solitary sell. it was reported Wednesday.

Henri Beaudout. 28-year-old skip- per of the homemade raft, said he and his crew hope to get un- der way June 5. They estimate the voyage will take two months.

They plan first to sail for New York and then head for the open sea. utilizing gulf currents to carry the white pine logs raft acrou the Atlantic to France or Portugal.

Beaudout. only married member of the crew and father of a two- yearold-girl, will be accompanied by Bernard Sorieul. M. navigator. Paul Antone Lapointe. 25. radio operator; and Gaston Vanackere, Z8. photographer.

Beaudout said the raft .is not yet completed. It measures 14 feet wide. has a six by 10-foot cabin amidships and an 10-foot mast.

Lapolnte said the attempt was conceived mainly to give Canada the distinction of being the first to conquer the Atlantic by raft.
