Images

• I would suggest adding alt text to the captions of all the images. MSincccc (talk) 09:34, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

  @MSincccc: Hi, thanks for taking this on. I've added alt text to the images. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 14:47, 26 March 2025 (UTC)

Prose

• He joined the Royal Navy on 4 December 1728, becoming a captain's servant... Were there multiple captains aboard the ship? If not, shouldn't the definite article be used here?

• I've added the wiktionary link for this. Captain's servant was a rating, so the wording here is akin to saying "becoming an admiral..."

• "100 men dead from scurvy" → "100 men to scurvy" (More natural phrasing; "dead from scurvy" is awkward).

• I've rejigged this differently as I think it's important to keep in that they died and were not only incapacitated or suffering from scurvy, let me know if you think this works

• Nutt subsequently provided navigational notes to the chaplain, Walter,... "Walter" had already been described as the chaplain in the same section.

• Removed excess
