Rov Deployment And Surveys June 2020

On June 26th, 2020, The International SeaKeepers Society partnered yet again with Nova Southeastern University’s Professor Paul Arena, and researchers Sydney Panzarino, Michael McDonough, and Tommy Ingalls to deploy a commercial grade mini ROV from the tender to DISCOVERY Yacht Marcato. Their eventual aim is to provide information on the fish communities, which utilize a relatively unknown and unexplored deep water habitat. Due to its depth, SCUBA surveys are restricted, thus an ROV unit could be utilized to record video surveys of these areas.
