We are getting near the end of data collection and things have been going well. We have been diving 3 times a day since May 17. Fortunately, we have had no major malfunctions of equipment or divers. I've had a little free flow trouble with one regulator, but I brought a spare. We once got a line wrapped around the prop, but Russell got that sorted on snorkel. The waterproof cameras and Russell's (now vintage) Novex security video software have worked perfectly.
We've seen a porpoise, otters, eagles, osprey, and a wolf, in addition to the usual crabs, corals, slugs, and worms underwater. I plan to post some video clips next month when I have faster internet.
We are in town now on our 3-day schedule, and the co-op store opens at 830a. Then we load up and head back to the site.
