    Left port on the even tide, 17 crew aboard. We lay bound for the River of Gold. Winds freshening in the evening. The crew is inexperienced, but cheerful.

    Winds easing SW. Seas moderate. A rigorous exercise as we beat into the wind early morning. As the men and their oars eased, several tried their luck fishing off the stern. Tonight we dine on fresh fish.

    9th Tiger

    Moderate and cloudy, SBE. Hoshiko caught stealing rations that belonged to Mao. Ten lashes given at last light.

    Heavy winds and rain., NW High seas. Second main halyard entangled around the mast until late morning. Moderate winds and sleet, NW. Moderate seas. Deck covered in ice. No fires are to be lit below decks until the weather clears.

    16th Tiger

    Wind fair, SW. Storm passes. We have blown further South from the storm, estimate that land is another several days away. Will make observations tomorrow if the cloud clears.

    Fresh winds, E. Calm seas. Beating gently back along the coast. Clear skies. Land in two days.

    and split his head open. Dour mood sets as there is no land in sight.

    Fair winds, NE. Land in sight and men in high spirits. Dropped 3 fathoms. Will take 10 men ashore to exchange gifts and present travel documents to the harbourmaster.
