The Fairweather paused here for quite a few minutes before turning her engines up to 12kn as she headed toward Alaska.
The Fairweather is a hydrographic survey vessel. On board her officers, technicians, and scientists collect data that NOAA cartographers use to create and update the maps that support safe pleasure, commerce, and military navigation.
