Post by arboggs »

Welcome to the log book of the Narwhal 1894

(Steam bark) of San Francisco, mastered by H.P. Smith, on voyage from 12 Mar. 1892 - 24 Oct. Nov. 1894.

If you would like to work on a section of the log please
  • leave a note in the next available reply section of this board below
  • remember to say which section you would like to work on
  • a link to the workbook, for your transcriptions, will be provided to you by personal message
  • let us know if you would rather work in Excel, LibreCalc, or Google Sheets
  • each section of the log must be transcribed by three different transcribers
Where to start once I have my log section and workbook?
Please ensure that you read these information pages before transcribing
  1. Transcribing: capturing the log details, and information resources
  2. Transcribing: managing your recording workbook
Dates are in the format YYYYMMDD. Links to log book pages are shown in blue

Hello Jkizzie! Google sheets it is then! Ah - I've got two transcribers already here (arboggs and marmaduke). I just spotted that you're all interested in a few others - I'll rattle around those for you now :)
