Comments

Another uncomfortable night last night. CPR recovered this morning (it was deployed as we left SAZ-C). Anticipating SAZ-B mooring site early this afternoon, however sea condition may preclude early pick-up. We'll just have to wait and see what the swell does this afternoon. Wind is moderating and should not be a problem. REGARDS Dug
