Little Cherub a5 Freeboard and Hazardous Voyage
A fragmentary account describes a rough Atlantic voyage from Gibraltar to the Azores aboard the British Prince. The crew faced heavy seas and a need for fresh water, with the pump under the forecastle head proving hard to reach during the storm. The cook urged action as seas boiled and men clung to the deck or bridge, risking danger to obtain water.
