Pickup of Rutgers glider, retrieval of the sea horse, prepped the sled deployed two Em-Apex floats

Today was a busy day that had a lack luster finish. During the day we readied the sled for deployment and then picked up the sea horse.

After dinner we deployed two EM-Apex floats, and picked up glider that was deployed 4 weeks earlier by Rutgers University.

Unfortunately the weather picked up so much that deploying the sled was too much of a hazard that the last tow was canceled and we started to head back to Bermuda.
