OBJECTIVES AND BRIEF NARRATIVE OF CRUISE
The cruise was scheduled to re-mount the current sensor at TELE-SENIGALLIA site (after the sea-cable repair) and to check the sensor against an RCM7 standard mooring, 5 meters far, same depth.
The crew was: Paschini,Penna, Gaetani and Marziali.
The ship departed at 9:00 morning and arrived at 10:05 and was moored to the mast from bow. We found a strong breeze from land.
The first operation was the cleaning of the mast(Marziali) with water gun, then (11:30) we deploy current sensor on starboard and the RCM7 mooring on port. Marziali dive to tie the cable and to check the mooring, meanwhile Gaetani (12:30) changed the light sensor and the whole buoy fanal. Paschini (13:00) make the wires connections and start again the datalogger system. We found the antenna cable out of order. Penna repair it and the system was restarted and checked by mobile call: OK.
The strong breeze from land increased. The ship leave the mast at 15:05 and arrived in Ancona at 16:00.

(IF APPLICABLE) if the cruise is designated as part of a larger scale cooperative project (or expedition), then enter the name of the project and of organisation responsible for co-ordinanting the project.

This section should be used for reporting mooring, bottom mounted gear and drifting systems (both surface and deep) deployed and/or recovered during the cruise.
Separate entries should be made for each location (only deployement positions need be given for drifting systems). This section may also be used to report data collected at fixed locations which are returned to routinely in order to construct 'long time series'.

PI Latitude Longitude TYPE DESCRIPTION

A same as above D01 cable and sensor deploy (5m)

Separate entries should be made for each distinct amd coherent set of measurements of samples. Different modes of data collection (e.g. vertical profiles as opposed to underway measurement) should be clearly distinguished,as shouldmeasurements/sampling techniques that imply distinctly different accuracy's or spatial/temporalresolution. Thus, for example, separate entries would be created for i) XBT drops, ii) water bottle stations, iii) CTD casts, iv) towed CTD, v) towed undulating CTD profiler, vi) surface water intake measurements, etc.
Each data set entry should start on a new line - it's description may extend over several lines if necessary.

You are strongly encouraged to submit, with the completed report, an annotated chart illustranting the route followed and the points where measurements were taken.

Enter the names of the oceans and/or seas in which data were collected during the cruise - please use commonly recognised names(see, for example, international Hydrography Bureau Special Publication No. 23, Limits of Oceans and Seas').

if the cruise activities were concentrated in a specific area(s) of an ocean or sea, then enter a desciption of the area(s). Such desciption may include references to local geographic areas, to sea floor features, or to geographic coordinates.
