Finished at last. October was only half a month.
I will now transfer to the Haida, as 1944 as reserved and 1945 complete.

The first two months of 1943 have been done. We are waiting for the Deck Logs to be scanned in order to complete the calculations for the last eight months. War-time security meant that only noon Lat/Longs would be given and only to the nearest whole degree. The deck logs have the actual positions. Rather than keep waiting, we have processed the first two months.

Many thanks to Hanibal for his great work. You can see a plot of the voyage here and, for more detail, you can download the KML file and view it with Google Earth.

These are the weather statistics for this voyage:
  • 879 records for Dir
  • 879 records for Kts
  • 880 records for Baro
  • 881 records for Dry
  • 264 records for Wet
  • 883 records for Weather
  • 828 records for Clouds
  • 17 records for From
  • 836 records for Amount
  • 862 records for VisM
There were 7209 weather records for Atalanta in 1943.
Atalanta travelled a total of 4868 miles.
