(within same year) |
Yes |
Interval: |
6 months |
# of Cruises: |
3 |

Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
SPURS will need 3 cruises at 6 month intervals. The first will be on the KNORR in Sept. 2012 and will involve the deployment of a lot of gear. The second can be on an intermediate ship and will be mainly ship surveys and some gear tending. The final cruise in fall of 2013 will involve mooring and float retrievals. |
