Schoolship with Interlochen Elementary and Baldwind MS (girls) - May 22






Today got off to a better start with slightly warmer temperatures and some sunshine later in the day. Captain Remy, with Scott Reitz and Bill Maul as Lead Instructors, lead the students through their hands-on science activities aboard Inland Seas. The surface water is still only 45 degrees, with the air only slightly warmer. Students measured the Secchi disk transparency at 12 meters today. Round goby dominated the trawl catch in the morning and afternoon, with a total of 42 caught in the two ten-minute trawls.
Aboard Manitou in Traverse City, Dr. Bill lead two classes from Green Elementary.
