Cruise Planning


USCG Healy - Science Berthing
Berthing arrangements will be made by the XO and the Chief Scientist. HEALY can carry up to 50 scientists. The XO is responsible for all US Coast Guard crew berth assignments within the crew-designated cabins on the 01, 03, and 04 decks. The Chief Scientist is responsible for assigning science berths. Science berths include two cabins located on the 04 deck, all of the cabins on 02 deck, and several cabins on the 03 deck. When the science party is smaller than 50, the Chief Scientist may assign 2 scientists per cabin on the 02 deck, but will work with the XO to accommodate any critical additional Coast Guard contractors and trainees within the science berth allotment. The Chief Scientist's stateroom (Telephone ext. 402) has two berths and is located in Officer's Country (04-33-6-L). Science party members shall maintain the cleanliness of their berthing areas and heads. Blankets and linen are provided. Members of the science party must provide their own towels, soap, shampoo, etc. Approximately 24 cubic feet of locker space is available for each science party member. Use of padlocks is recommended to secure valuables while on board.
