Frank, thank you for that material once more. Very interesting. Are the records for single days as brief as published on your web? Aren't there any courses, any log readings, computations of daily runs, computations of the next courses to follow and so on? Sample pages of virtual logbooks in navigation handbooks of this time (Bowditch and others) contained that items. Of course, the theory is always grey and the tree of life thrives green.

It's the voyage of the whaleship Stonington from August 1843 to April 1845: www.HistoricalAtlas.com/ston.gif
