Are there special considerations of the science party or cruise scheduling?
Consider science time constraints; coordination of equipment shipping;
two-ship operations; weather windows; mooring turn-around; teaching schedules
and others that will affect scheduling decisions.
-------------------------------------------------
MB07 will involve multiple RVs as did MB06 conducting operations with various
AUVs (mobile nodes) and fixed/bottomed nodes. RVs Point Sur, Sproul, Wecoma,
and Montague will participate in 2007. Overlap of these vessels in time is
critical for overall program success. A west coast ship scheduler
teleconference was held 11/16/06 which aligned the mentioned RVs in addition to
New Horizon.
Will need space for 20'x8' van for Bluefin AUV operations.

# Individual dives: # Divers on board:
A list of all divers and their certification information must be submitted
