TendOcean™ remote-sinking VDSB completes tests at WHOI A shortened version of our Variable Displacement Spar Buoys (VDSB) has been successfully tested in Casco Bay, Maine, and now in the test tank at WHOI. An r.f. link commands sinking and its submerged duration. This remote capability will be an option for TendOcean LLC's future 16' and 19' buoys. Intended primarily to sink the farm at the approach of sever weather, it's utility in depth cycling will be tested as a way to improve growth rates. https://lnkd.in/em7dQUW3
Very cool, Cliff. Keep us posted as this progresses

1yAre you using a variable pressure/volume air bladder or just a simpler remote valve for sinking and an compressed air fill from the surface to raise it? Does it require an integral energy source?
