Captain Cook’s Journal During the First Voyage Round the World

CHAPTER 4
47/88

The South-West swell still Continues, but not so much as Yesterday, and the observed Latitude and Log agrees.

Wind Calm, North; course South 18 degrees East; distance 38 miles; latitude 26 degrees 48 minutes South, longitude 149 degrees 42 minutes West.
Saturday, 19th.

Little wind with much rain in the night, the South-West swell still Continues, from which I conclude that there is no land near us in that Quarter.

Wind North-West; course South-East by South; distance 62 miles; latitude 27 degrees 40 minutes South; longitude 149 degrees 6 minutes West.
Sunday, 20th.

Little wind all this day.
