  In this paper we present short HI synthesis observations of 57 galaxies
without HI information in the RC3. These are a by-product of a large survey
with the WSRT of the neutral hydrogen gas in spiral and irregular galaxies.
Global profiles and related quantities are given for the 42 detected galaxies
and upper limits for the remaining 15. A number of galaxies have low values of
HI mass-to-blue luminosity ratio.
