Years: 1792 - 1792
March
Vancouver, proceeding to winter in the Sandwich Islands, arrives in March 1792.

He had been a young midshipman on Cook's fatal landing thirteen years earlier, so avoids coming ashore at Kealakekua Bay.

He is disturbed by the frequent request for firearms, and tries to avoid escalating the ongoing civil war, spending the winter in Oʻahu.

He makes arrangements for his tiny fleet to winter and re-supply in Hawaiʻi for the duration of the expedition.
