Mooring Recovery Cruise on 2 Nov 2022

We had a half-day cruise on the F/V Encourager to recover our acoustic recording mooring deployed 6 weeks earlier in Buzzards Bay.   The mooring recorded underwater acoustic data for our acoustic rainfall estimation project.   MNE MS student Patrick Pasteris rode along to test his Aurelia vertical profiler.  All photos by J. Buck unless otherwise indicated.
