Our mission is to advance scientific knowledge and promote sustainable practices for the benefit of our oceans. As a research vessel, we provide a platform for oceanographers and researchers to conduct experiments, fostering innovation and discovery in marine science. We run Tag-and-Release missions to help researchers better track the populations of marlin & key Pelagic species. Advocating for responsible fishing practices, sourcing fish that are caught sustainably, and promoting alternatives to plastic. Through our work, we aim to create a more harmonious relationship between humanity and the oceans, preserving their health and well-being for generations to come.
