Other Special Equipment; Comments:
----------------------------------
We will be deploying 7 surface and subsurface moorings on the shelf and slope.
The moorigns are designed for specific depths, so we need a good depth recorder
to 300 m and an accurate positioning system (regular GPS is fine).
We will also use the A frame, winches, crane, capstans, etc.
