Smithsonian Report. 1964. — Spilhaus 



^^? 





New equipment was tested in Pacific waters by FLIP (I mmihu instrument Platform) in 

 September 1963. The 355-foot craft, when standing upright, moved hardly at all, even 

 in heavy seas. It thus permits the use of sensitive oceanographic measurements. En- 

 route and return it is towed.
