Victor rows out to sea to dispose of the body of the second creature, a female, he has created. While out on the water, Victor feels refreshed by the breeze on the water, so he stretches out in the boat and resolves to stay out on the water longer than he has planned. He is lulled by the dark atmosphere and the waves, so he falls asleep in the boat. When he wakes, Victor realizes that the boat has drifted way off course, and he is lost. He does not have a compass with him, and he distresses over his state. The entire day passes before Victor sees land where he can dock and get provisions for himself. So Victor gets lost at sea and ends up sailing towards Ireland because he simply falls asleep in the boat.
