The logbook of the brigantine Hind details eight shipping voyages from Salem, Mass., Boston and Portsmouth, N.H., to the West Indies, with stops at Antigua, Guadeloupe, Haiti, and Martinique, Jan. 1784-Dec. 1786. The master and logbook keeper was Francis Boardman.

The Hind spoke the ship Friendship out of Salem during one of its voyages.
