Who Captain Guy is
Captain Guy is the master of the Jane Guy, a schooner used for trading and sealing. His ship offers Pym and Dirk Peters a refuge after hunger and danger aboard the wrecked Grampus.
The crew takes the survivors aboard and treats them kindly while they recover. Once Pym regains his strength, he joins the crew for the voyage through the southern seas.
What Captain Guy wants
Captain Guy hopes to make a profit among the southern islands through trade and sealing. The schooner stops at islands to hunt seals and gather goods before pressing farther south.
He decides to venture beyond the waters most ships have dared to enter. As the crew passes floating ice and great icebergs, the voyage moves toward places outside familiar charts.
