Things have been going great aboard the R/V Atlantic Explorer. We left for sea this morning, and we will be out here until Monday. I have met so many great people while I have been here.

This past week I was given the task to change out the LCI-90i winch display (see attached picture). I was a little nervous at first, but I was able to learn a lot from it. The Marine Techs have shared a lot of their knowledge with me, and I greatly appreciate it. 

I hope to work with people as great as the AE crew in the future. 

Hello everyone!

I have learned so much during the first two weeks of my internship. I made a huge accomplishment yesterday! The NTP time server on the ship, was only syncing the time to the computers every two days, I made it so that the time syncs every 5 minutes! My mentor, Nick, is awesome and he already taught me so much. I know by the end of my internship I will have so much more knowledge than when I started. I will be back next week to write my third blog!
