Notes: 1. Latitude/longitude, including for days in port, show representative decimal positions for each day, as calculated by the Old Weather project's analysis program. As such, they differ by varying amounts from the positions recorded, usually at noon, in the log pages. In addition, some latitudes/longitudes have been amended in edited logs for errors in the logs, for errors in identifying locations by the analysis program, or simply for greater accuracy. In all cases, refer to the log-page scans for the positions as originally recorded. Not all log pages contain this information and the ships' positions have therefore often been estimated. 2. Full account of any day is available by clicking on the link above that day. Groups of links refer to log book covers and introductory information; some may be blank. Editor’s notes: Where I have been able to research personnel, a ship, a place name, or other facts, I have placed ‘links' in the narrative to help the reader find further information. Most Royal Navy vessels have been linked either to Wikipedia articles or to the published logs here on naval-history.net Many of the transcribed logs have been edited, but some are still awaiting edit. ‘Darken ship’ refers to wartime footing and the fact that a ship did NOT want to be in open water with all lights blazing which would make it a visible target for enemy ships. Warships normally ran at night with no lights showing. ‘Log reset miles’ refers to the Patent Log – a rotored/propellored instrument towed behind the ship to measure distance travelled. It would be read and reset at intervals to determine how far the ship had travelled during a period of time. ‘Rotations/Revolutions’ are frequently mentioned in the logs as a means of determining speed. This refers to the rotational speed of the propellor shafts and/or the engine crankshafts. ‘Bower’ refers to the anchors carried at the bow of the ship. Make and Mend is the term used in the Navy for an ‘afternoon off.’ Many measurements will be mentioned in the logs such as ‘Cable, Fathom, Shackle, and Mile (Nautical Mile). More information on these can be found here: Imperial Measures of Length. |

(Maps prepared using Journey Plotter, developed by Maikel. The Plots can only be approximate. They are made by joining-up positions on successive days, and sometimes positions are not given.
