Comment:
1790-08-15T00:00: FONDEA EN LA ENSENADA QUE FORMA PUNTA DE 2 CABEZAS, LA QUE RECONOCE SER ISLA. AHÍ HALLA 1 ESTABLECIMIENTO RUSO QUE DESCRIBE (LLAMA LA ATENCION UNA ESCUELA DONDE ENSEÑAN A LOS INDIOS JOVENES A LEER Y ESCRIBIR EL IDIOMA RUSO). EN LA PLAYA HAY SOBRE POLINES 2 GALEOTAS CON VIGILANCIA CONTINUA. ANCLA Y SE INFORMA QUE EL JEFE SE LLAMA NESTRAT DELAROF Y SUBSISTE EN LA ISLA DESDE 1785 TENIENDO A SUS ORDENES 3 GALEOTAS, 2 PILOTOS Y 200 MARINEROS, DEPENDIENTES TODOS DE UNA COMPAÑÍA DE COMERCIO DE PETERSBURGO A LOS QUE TENIA REPARTIDOS EN VARIAS PARTES DE LA ISLA Y EN 2 CASAS DE LA RIBERA DE COOK PARA LA PESCA DE NUTRIAS. QUE EN EL AÑO 98 DESPACHO UNA (GALEOTA) AL PRINCIPE GUILLERMO Y RECORRIO LA COSTA HASTA LA LAT DE 57º, QUE EN EL 89 MANDO EN OTRA 80000 PIELES DE NUTRIA A ENTREGAR EN LA SIBERIA Y LA ESPERABA EN SEPTIEMBRE DE ESTE AÑO Y QUE CONTABA CON 9000 INDIOS AMIGOS Y VASALLOS DE LA EMPERATRIZ. SOLICITANDO POR LA EMBARCACION QUE MOTIVO LA FONDEADA, LOGRA SABER QUE HABIENDO SALIDO DE OJOSCO EL 10 DE MAYO ULTIMO 2 FRAGATAS DE GUERRA RUSAS DEL PORTE DE 18 CAÑONES DEL CALIBRE DE A 6 Y 110 HOMBRES DE TRIPULACION, SE PERDIO UNA DE ELLAS CON UN TEMPORAL Y ANCLO LA OTRA EL 9 DE JULIO EN ESTE FONDEADERO DE DONDE SIGUIO AL PRINCIPE GUILLERMO Y CABO DE SAN ELIAS, DEBIENDO INVERNAR EN SAN PEDRO Y SAN PABLO Y EN LA PRIMAVERA CONTINUAR LOS DESCUBRIMIENTOS DEL ESTRECHO DE BERIN (BERING). QUE SU COMANDANTE ERA DE NACION INGLESA Y QUE NAVEGO CON COOK DE PILOTO, EL CUAL LLEVABA RELOJ DE LONG, ASTRONOMOS Y UN NATURALISTA POR QUIENES SE SUPO QUE EN LA SIBERIA SE ESTABAN CONSTRUYENDO UNA FRAGATA Y UN PAQUEBOT Y, FINALMENTE, QUE NO HABIAN VISTO OTRA EMBARCACION QUE LA REFERIDA.
