Analysis

No longer in force

Two remotely operated Wave Gliders (C34167NS and C34164NS) are transiting LaHave Bank following a sequence of reported positions. The gliders are small (3.05 m x 0.81 m), travel about 1.0 kt, have masts with a white light and orange flag, and one has a non-transmitting AIS receiver. Mariners should keep a lookout for these slow-moving unmanned surface vehicles and contact the operators if sighted. This message cancels NW-M-1525-26.
