| Comments: | The barometer had been reading very erroneously on the previous voyage and up until the start of this one. Opening a vent on the catchpot so that the barometer could read lab pressure showed an instant change to expected pressure. This means that there must have been a blockage at the static pressure head or in the tubing. At time of this event, the tubing was blown our and reconnected as per design and will be monitored. | ||
