Update
Transit mapping has been ongoing and seas remain calm, allowing for quality data collection with depths ranging from between 2800 meters and 3600 meters. Our seabird surveyors continue to log bird observations en route, including visits from red-footed boobies, masked boobies and brown boobies. After a couple of days of rain and overcast skies, we're finally seeing a break in the weather.
