  1. The Miss Freeport V By Steven F, Connor W, Jacob F, and John M

  2. What we did While on the boat, we fished for fluke and studied oceanology, plankton and more…

  3. Touch tank station We taught the about what the creatures ate, how they hunted and some other cool facts They were all macro organisms, (able to see with naked eye) and all benthic organisms (live on ocean floor). Such as crabs, sea stars, snails, and sea urchins. Also seaweed was in the tank.

  4. Plankton Station At the plankton station the kids learned what makes plankton, plankton A plankton is a marine organism that cannot swim against a current. Plankton don’t always have to be small. A meroplankton is a plankton for only a part of it’s life. A holoplankton is a plankton for it’s whole life. Phytoplankton are plant like. Zooplankton is animals.

  5. OceanologyStation Oceanology is the study of the aboitic factors of the ocean (ocean currents, waves, salinity, visibility, color, and water temperature) Tools to figure out these things Refractometer: Measures salinity in parts per thousand Thermometer: Measures water temperature in degrees Seki disc: Measures the visibility in the water Forel-ule Scale: Measures the color of the water.

  6. Fishing The marine recreational fishing limits state that when fishing here in New York, the Summer Flounder (fluke) to be kept has to be at least 21 inches, the daily possession limit for fluke is 2 fluke, and open seasons for fluke is from May 15-September 6. There was also a fishing station on the boat. At that station they taught the kids how to fish and techniques to catch the fish. Lots caught fluke, only one caught a sea robin
