Reminder, one of the events at the upcoming New Hampshire convention is:

 

R/V GULF CHALLENGER: Saturday,the Gulf Challenger a 50-foot research vessel and crew are reserved for NANFA . It Includes an otter trawl, laboratory and specimen flow thru holding tanks. Great for photography and to see some rarely seen species. If the weather is good it will sample offshore at the Isles of Shoals. If the weather is inclement it will sample Great Bay Estuary. These are 5 - 6 hour trips. The Vessel can carry 39 passengers so it will be first come, first serve. Other events and sampling trips will be available. 

 

5 of the 39 slots have already been filled.

moving this to "Announcement" just because that is where most of the convention stuff is located.

Captains Log 2016, It all started out as a simple exploration mission in the Sebastes system when we heard a distress signal from the planet Myoxocephalus IV. Could it be the Merluccius attacking? We decided to scout out the situation by sending out the runabout Gadus while our main vessel stood by to assist if needed.
