Cruise Goals

 

This is a mooring ops and survey cruise focused on the area between

Port Hueneme and Port San Luis, CA. The plan is premised on wind speeds

less than 20 knots in the Avila Beach offshore area on 6--7 November.

If forecasts on 4--5 November suggest this may not be the case, the plan

may be inverted, beginning with mooring ops in the channel on 5 November

and ending with Avila Beach work on 9 November. The plan calls for tie up

at Port Hueneme on 10 November. Diving ops may be required in the event

of mooring failure. This cruise plan contains 2 modifications to

an earlier cruise plan posted last week.

 

1. We no longer go up to Morro Bay to release drifters. This

will be done by a charter vessel.

 

2. We tie up at Port Hueneme on the 10th and offload our group.

Ken Smith's group will then take over.

AR = Pt. Arguello
