Hi George

Frank Worsley's Navigational Log Book, to include the journey of the Caird 
does in fact live in a museum!!!

www.CanterburyMuseum.com
Christchurch, New Zealand
Collection: Worsley, Frank MS540
Item description: Logbooks and Papers relating to voyage of Endurance to Antarctica and Return


You specify which pages you want by date, and pay NZ$1 for each page plus NZ$5 
for airmail.  They offer B&W and Color images, the price above is for B&W.

I asked for the pages relating to the voyage of the Caird and GOT THEM!!!!! I 
haven't studied them in detail, cause I am waiting for a dull day.  They are 
fairly legible, but not totally.  The color might be better.

What I would like to know is if he just sailed down a latitude line or went great circle.

For some reason, they will not just give you the whole log book, you can only get parts.

They also carefully restrict reproduction of the documents, so while I do have 
them, I can't share them with the group.  Once I tease out the data, I think 
I can share that, but I don't think George will be able to wait.

Best Regards
Brad
