Hi Margo What is the name of the vessel that you will be using in May? And will the SHEDD Aquariun be supporting you in any way?

Hello Capt. John, The name of the vessel is "Dream Catcher". TO my knowledge, the SHEDD Aquarium is not involved in this project. If you have suggestions for sources of support, please let us know! All the best, Lisa

We are very close now - just $120 away. Remember that if we raise more than our goal, the money all benefits the project. Anything more than our minimum will go to help offset costs for volunteers who are going to join in the research or to purchase supplies like bands, mist nets, etc.
