The @R/V Neil Armstrong left the dock at Woods Hole, MA with an unusual empty deck.  Deck Lead Chris Basque joins Third Mate Mariah Kopec-Belliveau in the uncommonly spacious area. The Pioneer 19 Team will be recovering the Coastal Pioneer Array and will not be deploying new moorings.  The next time Pioneer will be deployed will be in 2024 a new location in the Southern Mid-Atlantic Bight.
