Sea Researchers To Help With Hurricane Efforts

Some underwater explorers from Maine are headed to the gulf coast to help in the hurricane relief efforts.

Greg Brooks and Brian Ryder will be aboard the MV Diamond leading a convoy of 30 boats that will visit a dozen communities along the gulf coast. They will bring water, food and ice to people who haven't received aid since hurricane katrina came ashore.

They will also be using their underwater equipment to search the gulf floor for sunken fishing boats and ships.

"We're going to try to get one of our videotographers under the water and videotape what's happening to the bottom, what's happening to the marine life, and any other things that are down there," said researcher Greg Brooks.

Brooks and Ryder are scheduled to be down in the gulf for two weeks. Most of the supplies they're bringing to the people affected by the storm have been donated. If you'd like to help, you can find more information in the FMI section.
