Objectives

Principally a mooring deployment cruise in the western North Atlantic Ocean at 26.5degN - six moorings deployed. This was followed by a hydrographic survey at the Abaco Western Boundary Array during which sixteen CTD casts were measured. Ship returned to Freeport, Grand Bahama, where the cruise ended.
