Ship's Log
Noon Position: Alongside Gallows Bay, Christiansted, St Croix, USVIs
Weather / Wind / Sail Plan (from 1300 Watch Change): Pleasant afternoon in the tropics.
This afternoon we welcomed all Ocean Exploration and Atlantic Odyssey students onboard the SSV Corwith Cramer for the beginning of Cruise C-302 sea component. Over the next six weeks we will sail from St Croix, USVIs to Key West, FL, a 2000+nm voyage from Eastern Caribbean into the Sargasso Sea, back to the Western Caribbean, past Jamaica, around Cuba and across the Gulf Stream near the end of the voyage. Between now and then we will do a boatload of sail handling, science, learning and growing; as individuals and as a community of shipmates.
