Берендт пишет, что британские капитаны, совершившие несколько плаваний, «часто приобретали большие богатства от работорговли», особенно если они входили в число тех 10%, которые также были совладельцами своих судов.
Герберт Клейн отмечает, что капитан мог накопить «приличное состояние» за два-три рейса. См.: Klein Н. S. The Atlantic Slave Trade. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1999. P. 83. О случаях, когда капитаны имели неприятности с нанимавшими их торговцами, см.: Ford А. С., ed. Ап Eighteenth Century Letter from a Sea Captain to his Owner I I New England Quarterly. 1930. No 3.

Еще одна причина, по которой он советовал соблюдать осторожность, заключалась в том, что Мур никогда не бывал в Кейп-Косте или Лагосе. См.: TSTD, #80578.
