[CINC] Sea Festival aboard the RV Shearwater October 11

[SpaExplorer]

During the Sea Festival at Santa Barbara Harbor on October 11 the NOAA research vessel RV Shearwater was tied up at the accomodation dock and open for tours by the public. The tours were hosted by CINC naturalists Susie Williams, Don Gillis and myself. The public, many of them right off of the Pirate Cruise that shared our dock, took advantage of a chance to see the ship, count the bunks and sit in the Captain's chair. A good time was had by all. Charlie, the crew member in charge of the ship, made us feel at home. It was fun to be aboard at dockside. It will be even better to join Shearwater at sea.   Regards to all,  Paul Froemming
