Excerpt from Observations of Skipjack Schools in Hawaiian Waters, 1953<br/><br/>Good good visibility in all directions, vessel not taking any spray on bridge and sailing smoothly, binoculars usable regularly. Fair good visibility in all directions but occasional spray, usually from one side of the vessel, hampering regular use of binoculars on that side; one door on bridge usually closed because of spray, vessel with moderate pitch or roll. Poor fairly continuous Spray over bow to bridge deck, impossible to use binoculars, heavy pitching and rolling of vessel. The relation of scouting conditions to direction of travel of vessel is shown in table 7, which shows the scouting performed on gilbert cruises 11 and 13 along the courses shown in figure 1. In executing these patterns the day's run was always toward one of the cardinal points of the compass. The east to west runs were almost always performed under good conditions whereas the west to east runs encountered almost all of the poor conditions. Both northward and southward runs were performed under about equal amounts of good and fair conditions.
