Content Warning

This project uses historic names for places, some of which may now be offensive. Map points are approximate and do not indicate the exact anchorages of the vessel. Voyage layers may not include all anchorages and may include some places sighted but not visited. Journey lines follow the shortest route between anchorages and do not indicate the exact path of the vessel.
