"The R/V Mirai is ready for the YMC cruise"

The R/V Mirai YMC cruise will start from Singapore in late November. Since she will not come back to Honshu Island before our cruise, we loaded instruments onboard at Hachinohe Port (northern part of Honshu Island). She departed for another mission on October 18, and is scheduled to call at Okinawa on November 10. Then, the first party of YMC team will embark there. (KY)
