New dive gear washdown area

Fall has been a busy time at KML, both on and off the water. New and returning researchers have been on-site conducting their studies and have been very excited at the progress of the rebuilding projects. We have housed several classes in our dorms and taken visiting groups out to explore the nearby marine habitats.

Divers and snorkelers can now enjoy the use of our new gear wash-down area at the end of a day on the water. We have 2 large tubs for wet-suits and dive BC's and fins. In addition, there are now 3 smaller tubs designated just for regulators, masks and snorkels, and camera equipment. Fresh-water showers are also available for a quick rinse-off.




Future plans include a second wash-down area to be constructed out near our wet lab.
