Betty - November 25

Big milestone today---we have reached our target on Betty's tracking. The two-month mark was the goal on this project, and we have made it. Battery strength suggests that, after 14,000 transmissions to date, we may be able to continue to hear from her for a while.

Betty continues toward Florida, moving to a position about 105 km SW of her release site, and about 320 km west of her stranding site. Betty has been making a number of dives to 400-600 m depth, and staying down for up to 10-11 minutes.
