C887

Weather: good visibility, wind North 10 knots, sky overcast, 2 foot swell

Vessels: not much boat traffic in the area today.

Ecological:

-Tankers: Kouros (oil/chemical) passed by on its way to Manzanillo Mexico and The Alaskan Navigator heading to Port Angeles

-We continue to have 4 male elephant seals and 3 females, including C887 (green tag) on the main island (observed previously). C887 was quite interested in a puddle, she would put her snout in the water and make bubbles then appeared to swallow mud from the bottom and cough it back up.

Maintenance:

-continued work on energy system assessment, took battery bank specific gravity and voltage measurements of each cell.

-transfer 80L diesel to engine room, fill generator tank

-cleared driftwood from boat ramp
