Weathered Out Again
August 8, 2016

Unfortunately, the weather was too bad again to get the remotely operated vehicles in the water. So we spent the day mapping, but the weather was rough enough that even the mapping data was not great. Overnight, we moved a bit further north and we will try and dive again tomorrow.
