Off to Labrador: Day One

Before our LabSea2015/6 glider deployment can get underway, we first need to get the mission glider from St. John's to its deployment location in Southern Labrador. Today we completed the first leg of this 1200 km-long road/boat trip, making it to the west coast of Newfoundland in good time despite heavy rain much of the way. Tomorrow we journey north along the Great Northern Peninsula.
