The OpenROV(#1517) arrived today! This kit was provided by David Lang and Eric Stackpole at OpenROV (http://www.openrov.com), and made possible by a sponsorship from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation (http://www.moore.org). I’d like to thank them again for supporting our expedition!

We called our crew in for a meeting over coffee and donuts tonight. We saved opening the box until everyone arrived, and had a great time pulling out each piece to give them the once over. We’re excited and looking forward to the build and getting it into the water. Already we’re seeing where we can fit working on it into our current schedule.

This weekend we’ll be clearing off our workspace and will start digging into the build. We’ll post our progress along the way.
