August 22, 2023: Leg 1 came to an end under calm seas and blue skies, as compared to four days of weather during the leg, with winds up to 35 knots (40 mph).  Despite the weather, the RCA team had multiple successes.  They turned two science platforms on each of the Shallow Profiler Moorings at the Oregon Offshore and Slope Base sites, turned the low power junction box at Slope Base,  and turned infrastructure at the Oregon Shelf site.
