[CINC] Important Kit News - Please Read

[Deb4nb at aol.com]

Greetings All,
 
Speed Twin Kit:  If the handheld GPS does not work properly, it is most 
likely a battery issue.  In that case when the "on" 
button is pressed, the bottom screen will indicate "low battery" in small 
print.  When the GPS is charged, it takes about 20 seconds or less for tracking.  
I placed a new battery package in the kit (thanks Clare!), so make sure to 
place the used batteries in the blue fold-a-lope which will be recycled.  I 
didn't find any used batteries in the kit (?), so hopefully someone else took them 
for recycle.  If anyone has questions, I'm glad to help so
call or email.  
Found:  An extra Eastern North Pacific marine mammal
waterproof guide.
 
Double Dolphin Kit:  The beautiful new 2008 Channel Islands Marine Protected 
Areas laminated visual has been sadly bent in half and stuffed in the kit.  A 
duplicate won't be made for the DD this year.  The blue whale baleen envelope 
was crushed under other items and now has a torn piece.  As always, kindly
treasure, take care, and tidy the kits during each shift.   
Found:  Is anyone missing their Whales Dolphins and Porpoises book?   
 
Condor Kit:  Is anyone missing their Mac's Field Guide to 
Birds?  
 
New Approved Item:  Shauna has approved a "Cetacean Identification Wheel" 
made by the Navy as a tool.  These were distributed by CINC Naturalist Kathleen 
Roos at the May lecture with speaker Lt. Rear Admiral Lawrence S. Rice. 
(If you didn't make the meeting, you can still have your own by contacting 
Shauna.)  This item will be on the boats soon.
 
Best Wishes,
Debra
