1884-April 18--His first sea voyage. His first sailing trip Hans Jahnsen had, was with the ship "Will Hunter". He sailed from Arendal 18 April 1884. It was the same ship his brother Jens Christian sailed with, and the same time. The two brothers sailed together to France, and returned to Arendal the 24 May 1884.

1885-His next trip was with the barque "Leda" from Arendal, and again to the Baltic sea. The trip started 22 April 1885 and did not return to Arendal before 10 October 1885. The ship must have sailed many other places before its return.
