Workouts, paint classes, and karaoke! The U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy crew and their attached friendly neighborhood scientists participate in a wide range of activities and morale events to keep their spirits up during their Arctic deployments!
In addition to taking time out for morale activities, the crew assists in specialized scientific missions, providing scientists and researchers access to the most remote reaches of the Arctic Ocean. Their most recent deployment included members from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) ship Fairweather, and the University of New Hampshire.
