Static draft observations were made <strong>for</strong> the both systems the day of departure<br />

under full load, <strong>and</strong> at the end of the cruise in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Subtracting the RP<br />

from the projection draft markings on the starboard side of the NANCY FOSTER<br />

resulted in the draft <strong>for</strong> the EM1002. For the 7125 a fiberglass tape was lowered into the<br />

moonpool until it reached the flange of the mount. A water elevation was recorded,<br />

which was then added to the acoustic center of the 7125. The total loss of draft observed<br />

during the cruise <strong>for</strong> both systems was negligible. The initial draft values <strong>for</strong> the<br />

EM1002 were verified with lead line observations while tied up at Isla De Vieques.<br />

There were difficulties reading the leadline from the fantail of the ship <strong>for</strong> the 7125, <strong>and</strong><br />

the leadline was not completed. To verify the elevations of the 7125 a reciprocal test line<br />

was ran with both the EM1002 <strong>and</strong> the 7125. There was excellent feature alignment as<br />

well as agreement vertically. The Lead Hydrographer feels that the dynamic <strong>and</strong> static<br />

draft corrections are adequate <strong>for</strong> this survey.<br />
