10.12.1935 Labrador Sea, Davis Strait, Anchored 1 mile from Knight Island, 100th day at sea

Schiff 30 spent her 100th day at sea at anchor off an uninhabited island in the Davis Strait. She arrived after an uneventful voyage from the Denmark Strait and North Atlantic. 2 Survey teams disembarked from the ship as follows:
Boat Nr. I under Oblt.z.S Dr. Wurst to Knight Island
Boat Nr. III under L.z.S Dr. Klein to Lawson Island
Boat Nr. V under Reg.Rat. Dr. Bey to Knight Island
V-Boot Nr. I under L.z.S Schmidt on standby in the water
During the time the ship is anchored the following repairs are carried out:
Repairs to the canvas camouflage on the foredeck
Repairs to the 7.5cm stop gun
Superstructure was given a fresh coat of white paint
Floatplane moved from Hold Nr. II back to Hold Nr. IV.

Schiff 30 will then move up the Davis strait and stop at Resolution Island, Loks Island, and finally Coburg Island in the Baffin Bay. The meteorological expedition is expected to be completed by 31.12.1935.
