Axim, Ghana

First mate’s logbook

A gentle breeze came from the land in the morning. A boat anchored here and two boats passed us to go north. Later throughout the day we had good weather and a gentle breeze from SSW. 1 barrel was assembled. We got 4 canoes of ballast and 4 canoes of water on board, as well as a male slave. The wind from NW was gentle and quiet at night, and we had good weather until the morning.
