All Pelagras Recovered

We picked up that last of the 5 PELAGRA sediment trap floats at 03:30, and now Dave Checkley and Ryan are getting ready to deploy the "bongo" zooplankton net tow in the quickly-fading semi-darkness. (Zooplankton come up when it's dark, which only happens for a few hours here.)

This is my second-to-last watch. One more to go, and then we'll be back in port! It's hard to believe the field cruise is nearly over.
