Science while you sail

Cruisers can help improve scientific knowledge about the health of our oceans while going sailing.

- 

In a partnership set up between the Ocean Cruising Club (OCC) and the GOES Foundation (Global Oceanic Environmental Survey), sailors are invited to take part in a citizen science ocean initiative that will help answer questions that are too difficult or too expensive for oceanographic ships to collect.

Participating ocean sailors will collect and examine water samples, then send the data back to be analysed.
