Recovered by Jerome Couvat and Lionel Yamb with Captain Bruno Garel of the Parc Naturel Marin de la Martinique aboard MADIWAK out of Fort-de-France, Martinique French West Indies.
TS Bret doesn't seem to be intensifying, not worried about getting a boat out on Monday for recovery so turning CTD back onto full-time.
put u_alt_min_depth to conserve a bit more battery hopefully. REMEMBER to reset prior to recovery.
Turning off optode, putting CTD to only sample on downcasts, and putting science in low power otherwise seemed to drop power consumption from ~4.8 to ~4.15 amp-hr/day
Optode off and CTD to downcast only at next surfacing.
!put u_science_low_power 0
Glider's pitch has been wobbly? Vertical velocity too.
