Details: Sept 12: The cal trip went fine today, got all the dirty cals done but too windy to replace the weather buoy data logger. Well try that again tomorrow as well as the clean cals. 13 Sep: The current was up on Friday and we were not able to get any calibrations done. The drogue was pulling the top arm out of the water and after two attempts to attach the lamp to the bottom arm we decided it was not possible. The collectors were cleaned and the antifoulant tubes were replaced, barely. The winds were down and we did get the weather buoy controller package and new antenna installed.
