The passage from Boston till we were Nearly as far to the Eastward as Madeira was upon the whole boisterous and uncomfortable but the later part of the month was more pleasant in the Latitude 32 37′ N and Longtitude 18 50′ W by account we had prosperous winds on the Evening of the 31st We saw two or three Amphibious Animals of what species I could not discover.
The evening of the 18th Displayed to us a prospect most brillunt the Northern lights shone with far more lusture than I ever observed them to do before.
From the 14th to the 17th the winds hung to the Eastward we were in Latitude 34 55′ N and Longitude [ ] [ ]‘ W.
The 12th and 13th the Winds were more favourable and we made considerable progress on our passage.
The Winds now hung between the North and East on the 10 we were in Latitude 34 53′ and Longitude [ ] [ ]‘ W.
The Winds were moderate and variable till the 7th When we spoke a ship from Liverpool bound to New York her Longitude by Account was 61 00′ W.
The weather was rainey and disagreable on the 5th we were in Latitd. 40 08′ N and Longitude 59 50′ W.
We took our departure from Cape Cod and had on the 4 made 10 Degrees of Longitude tho no press of Sail was caried when we were overtaken by a sharp Squall from the West north but alltho’ there was not more wind than would forse Us four knotts we still continued, under that Sail nineteen hour.
From the 2nd to the 4th the wether was moderate and Winds favourable.
and as nautical observations are what may most interest the Navigator and it are only them that can mark a track so frequently trod; little of course can be expected.
... nay, it would not be in my power to say much of a passage where scarsely the nesecary observations for navigating the Ship were taken;
A track so frequently passed as to the Cape de Verds, can aford but little entertainment or information to a reader..."
“Early on Monday morning we weighed and came to sail, and by sunrise we were out of the Harbour.” Robert Haswell Third Officer, ship Columbia Rediviva 1 Oct.1787 (Taken with Instagram at Fort Revere)
... our Friends parted not with us untill late in the evening, nor then, without the most tender expressions of Friendship, and [their] wishes for our prosperity resounded from every tongue.
The evening was spent in murth and glee the highest flow of spirits animating the whole Company Jovial songs and animating sentiments passed the last evening we spent on that side of the Continent...
The Ship was got underway and proceeded down as far as Nantaskit Roads where we anchored it being nearly calm in the company with the Washington.
... about Noon Capt. Kendrick, Lieut. Howe his Clerk Mr. [Treat] the furier Mr. Roberts our [Surgeon] and Mr. Nutting the Astronimer came onboard with the pilot accompanyed by a great number of the Merchants Gentlemen and others of Boston.
