Hi Ivona, Person to address pump situation is Port Engineer. See below,
Mary Jane

>From Res Tech Keith Shadle back in August when he was first queried on pump:
"Bow Thruster pumps would have to be addressed to our Port Engineer.  I can
tell you that we probably will not be swapping out our uncontaminated pumps
even if they are not correct, so if they don’t suit needs science can bring
their own suitable ones and we can sample over the side.  Correct, no moon
pool.  About 12 feet depth as well..."
