Transcription Notes:
Attu is correct
Id. short for island
fms = fathoms
I assume the "do."s are "dittos"- should they be transcribed as "do." or should they be filled in?
Unsure if circle + cross symbols are supposed to be the symbol for female, since they aren't pointed the right direction?
The notations on the left page seem to match up to and elaborate upon lines on the right- should this be indicated by some means? I did not indicate them as such, but they might almost be treated as marginalia for the right page.
