I have seen 50, 53, 60 and 64 for the number of crossings Linn made of the Atlantic. The figure of 53 comes from his own hand in a family Bible, recorded by Thomas Hunter Molton in 1922. (link) --Dystopos 14:29, 21 July 2014 (PDT)
- See Moyne-1977 for a cautionary footnote: "The story of Charles Linn's life in some of the American sources has been so romanticized that it is very difficult to separate facts from fiction. Moreover, in his own accounts Linn recorded details which

are contradictory." --Dystopos (talk) 14:04, 29 June 2020 (PDT)
