Unusual features: This is a left-handed ship (the laboratories are on the starboard side, so that all work is done over the port side or the stern).
Future planned upgrades/refits: We make steady upgrades to the ship, as time and funds are available. Replace computer laboratory van on 01 level. Continued improvements to underway meteorological and sea surface data acquisition system. Mid-life refit is in the planning process.
