R/V MIRAI

"weekend"

Fine, swell still remains.
By the evening, wind speed and wave height decrese to less than 10m/s and 4m, respectively.

Observations:

All instruments work well.
No particular trouble is reported.

Remarks:

MIRAI is cruising southward just east off Okinawa Islands. Because of weekend, we could spend our time without any interruption from land. Since swell remains whole day, all instruments were surveyed on their condition.
