Thrashing riffs capture the energy of the mission and offer a nice contrast to the quiet tranquility of what lies beneath the waves :)

haha, we are equally obsessed with sounds of the underwater world! We use a Spotter Sound buoy from Sofar Ocean Technologies which contains an advanced hydrophone, water sensor and satellite links to a remote dashboard. The blue sensor tests for salinity and dissolved oxygen.

Thank you, we couldn't agree more!

Yes! We promptly reported its position and condition and the poor whale was rescued and freed within 24 hours by trained response teams from The Marine Mammal Center, Cascadia Research and California Academy of Sciences.

So many go unreported, we were lucky to be in the field that day!
