Water test tomorrow? - NO!

• Go / no-go reliant on tether status
  • No functional tether currently
  • Need to epoxy tether - 24 hour operation
  • Possible solution - if BlueROV tethers work, replace a penetrator to use the BlueROV cord instead
  • Creating a tether is a TOP PRIORITY and must be done by next week!
• Water test goals:
• Water test procedure:
  • Arrive at lab ~1 hour before test
  • Start bringing sub and field elements to CRC about 30 minutes prior to test
  • Test in comp pool 10-2
  • Need people for tear down and bringing stuff back to Weber, arrive by 1:30 to help with teardown
• Need people to swim!

EM is making a new tether!!

Instead of a water test this week, aim for full dry test next Friday from noon - 4
