Wolfe was a mate of the <I>Blossom</I>. He is said to have been particularly industrious in drawing charts and working in the observatory when it was erected on shore.
An account of the voyage of <I>HMS Blossom</I> (Capt. F.W. Beechey) which left England in May 1825 to go to Behring Strait to relieve two British expeditions that were searching for the North-West Passage. On the way, Beechey was instructed to explore such parts of the Pacific as were within his reach. After rounding Cape Horn, the <I>Blossom</I> called at Easter Island and Pitcairn Island before making an extensive survey of the Tuamotu Archipelago. The ship then spent a month in Tahiti before sailing for the Hawaiian Islands. A second call was made at Hawaii in January 1827 following a voyage to Arctic waters. The <I>Blossom</I> returned to England via Cape Horn in October 1828.
