Abstract

Delta Oceanographic's "Delta" submarine held onto the side of the R/V Suncoaster. The "Delta" is a small, two person submarine which can be used for scientific research. The R/V [Research Vessel] Suncoaster was a scientific research ship which was operated out of St. Petersburg, Florida by the Florida Institute of Oceanography. The "Delta" submarine is held by the R/V Suncoaster's crane. Three people stand aboard the R/V Suncoaster, near where the submarine is being held. The hatch of the submarine is open, allowing for crew members to enter or exit the submarine. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) logo is painted on the submarine with the word "Delta" painted below the logo.
