Comments and Feedback
Very poor visibility during the survey (less than 2 m) The silt made the search for debris difficult. Good fun though.
Thanks to the team. Proud of you. Right to left on the team picture: - Alexandre Grimard - Jean-Francois Bolduc - André Jean - Vincent Bonnet - David Bourret - Max Michelin - Didier Duprat
