Dear Ship Scheduling,

Below is a tentative list of personnel and a schedule for our upcoming use of the Sproul. Please let me know if you have any questions or see any problems. In particular, we are assuming that it is acceptable to leave port at 11 pm next Monday.

Captain Zimm and Seth Mogk have been briefed and been given detailed deployment schedules for the F/O cable and SRP arrays by Dick Harriss.

We'd like to request that the RIB boat be available on board. It will provide a backup for the Center for Coastal Studies small craft being used during the deployments, as well as provide a water taxi to Oceanside harbor.
