The R/V Weatherbird II is the flagship of the FIO fleet. The 115-foot, 194-ton vessel is equipped with advanced laboratories, oceanographic devices and sensor technology designed to enable scientists and students to study and learn about various as-pects of the ocean’s biological, chemical, geological and physical characteristics. Researchers use the vessel to support advanced studies on the myriad of complex issues impacting global and coastal oceans, as well as life in the sea. The Weatherbird II has berths for 13 people, 780 square feet of work-ing deck space, 200 square feet of wet laboratory space and is capable of voyaging throughout the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.
