Ta-daa! Time for the first post from our ROPEWALK account! Here are voyages of the Danish three-mast schooner Maagen (Seagull) from Cadiz to Newfoundland (several icebergs were seen on 9 September 1914) and from Leith to Reykjavik (ash rain, probably from Katla, was observed on 11 July 1915).
Danish three-mast schooner Maagen (Seagull) which sailed from Cadiz to Herring Neck (Newfoundland) in August and September 1914. The ship journal of this sailship is one of those we have digitized in the ROPEWALK project. Tracks of sail ship "Maagen" in 1914 and 1915: Two voyages across the Atlantic and further travels from Gibraltar to Leith (Scotland) and on to Reykjavik. A page from the journal of three-mast schooner Maagen from September 1914.
