Narrative:
The aircraft we began the day with in sea had come in with a logbook write-up. The #2 engine was reported to have had an engine vibration level of 3.9. Sea maintenance had cleared the write-up. During climb out of sea; the #2 engine vibration level reached 4.0 and vibration was felt in the aircraft. QRH procedures were followed and the level reduced below 4.0. All other engine indications were normal. We contacted sea dispatch and maintenance control. The decision was made to continue to phx. The rest of the flight continued normally.
