So, I was reviewing some of the text and realized that throughout, navigational directions are utilized such as S.E., N.W., etc.

In section 6 is the text, "In due course we rounded the Cape and drew up into the S.E. trades, heading for Bahia." I read this as "Ess Eee trades". Now I'm thinking I probably should have said, "South East trades".

Ruling on this?
Section 6 is PL OK! I think it's still perfectly understandable leaving it as SE instead of saying both words.
Haha, okay! However, in anticipation of the correction I did fix and prepare a file with "South East." So, I have it ready to roll, if you wish. I realize that it would require a spot check, though, so as you wish.

Cheers!!

Quite alright. Go ahead and re-upload section 6 and I can easily spot check the section that you've switched to South East. When you resubmit it, please just reconfirm that all other portions of the recording have not been updated. Thanks!

Hi, I'm a new reader but I'd like to have a go at Section 15, Chapter 8, part 1.

If that goes well, who knows, maybe I'll try Part 2!

Alistair.

May I please claim sections 17 and 18?

Great, thanks. Is there a "Moonshadow" around? If not then I'd use that as a credit. (Its' the name of my boat!)
