Gould, P. J. 1963--At Sea 15 August 3, 1963--2[illegible] days out from Pearl Harbor (S & W) in YAG 39. Ca. 500 nautical miles by evening. Hawaii Johnston Island 200 mi. 250 mi. Above is proposed grid coverage pattern for this phase of the Pacific project. The YAG 39 will make between 9 and 11 knots until the grid is reached. There a steady (as much as possible) 8.4 knots will be held while on the grid. It is hoped that we can maintain an average of 8.4 knots so that on the first leg of the grid we will spend daylight at the Johnston Island half and night at the far end, then in the next leg to have night at the Johnston Island part. This first trip we plan to do a lot of collecting so this schedule may be hard to keep. 0641--Wedge-tailed Shearwater starboard to port 0643-- " " " port 0649--Sooty Tern 1 ad and 1 juv on port, 20-25' above H2O 0720--Sooty Terns 50 plus/minus offport bow 0720--1 large bird (Frigate?) in with above terns 0728--Wedge-tailed Shearwater (2) starboard 0735-- " " " (1) starboard 0745-- " " " (1) port
