Prepare to embark on an extraordinary underwater odyssey with Dr. Adrian Munguia-Vega to join a groundbreaking expedition for the fourth consecutive year. This isn't just any diving trip – it's a thrilling plunge into the heart of deep-sea marine biodiversity, where science meets adventure in the pristine waters of the Revillagigedo Archipelago. You'll be at the forefront of cutting-edge marine research, wielding the power of non-invasive environmental DNA (eDNA) to unlock the hidden secrets of the archipelago's biodiversity. Picture yourself as a scientific detective, collecting water samples that hold microscopic traces to the presence of elusive marine species. With each sample, you're contributing to a groundbreaking ecological baseline that's reshaping our understanding of this underwater paradise. But the true adventure lies in the unexplored depths. Brace yourself as we deploy state-of-the-art sampling devices into the abyss, plunging up to 300 meters into mysterious marine canyons and never seen underwater seascapes. These high-tech marvels, equipped with depth recorders and video cameras, will be your eyes and ears in a realm few humans have ever witnessed. As we go deeper, you'll discover that the twilight zone between 80-280 meters harbors a hidden world teeming with life – a parallel universe of biodiversity waiting to be explored. You will also have the opportunity to learn to identify and record up to forty species of fish, sharks and rays as we will be making visual underwater counts of the species to complement and validate the DNA samples. This research is in addition to the diving itinerary and guests can participate as much or as little as they like.

WIND? Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines Nick in this video shares valuable insight on handling winds while performing a stern-to docking manoeuvre with lazy lines. =========================== Transcript Now if it was a really windy day or if I was getting blown away right now I would drive boat against that stern line or control line so that I had control and was not drifting closer to the dock especially if I had a wind on the nose. So we just keep pulling this out and I keep watching the stern of my boat. Now that I'm pulling the boat forward I don't have to worry about the boat heading backwards there and I've got that control line on so I can't go too far. So I'm not going to worry about trying to pull this really hard right now I'm going to get it firm. Get it on. And then go down and deal with my other stern line and the other bow line. =========================== Filmed and Edited by Mahina Hathaway and Nick Hathaway, 45 Degrees Sailing Looking to sail in Croatia?
