Assuming the weather starts to clear up some, we'll be deploying Jason after breakfast tomorrow, which means at least one very important thing: we won't have to get up at 3 a.m. until Tuesday. Unfortunately, the weather may mean we won't have to get up at 3 a.m. for a while, so we're watching closely and hoping that things clear up. There are a few backup plans including filling in some gaps in the multibeam bathymetry coverage and running a towed CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth) survey in the meantime. We're not talking about these though, as that would be considered giving up. One other major benefit of being here is that the massive heave associated with cruising along has effectively been eliminated, which is really helping our seasickness.
