The 1897 voyage of the Navarch does have a detailed crew list. You might find additional names throughout the log to post here as well, all information is helpful and it is fun to get to know your crew!
Ships Met - Please note ships that they mention during their voyage, a simple list with the date next to it will be fine. This will allow us to cross reference ships' positions.

What a variety of names - shows the US's great melting pot of folk - cool
Re: Crew and Ships Met
Just to show that it really is worth noting other ships met in the remarks column of your transcription.
The Navarch is who-knows-where. She notes speaking to the Beluga on April 30th 1897 and we have that other log...
So - we're near Cape Naverine You can't enter that in the transcription unless you enter it as a Transcriber's note.
