jun 17, 1497 - 17 June, in the condition of the dense fog, Paulo Da Gama, vasco Da Gama's brother, has not been seen onboard
Description:
The fog during the night grew so dense that Paulo da Gama lost sight of the captain-major, and when day broke on 17 June, we saw neither him nor the other vessels. We therefore made sail for the Cape Verde islands, as we had been instructed to do in case of becoming separated.Added to timeline:
