Science at the Inn


You never know who you are having breakfast with at the Captain's Inn at Moss Landing. You may be dining with a shark ichthyologist, salt marsh ecologist, or a submarine engineer. The bed and breakfast is located between two world reknown marine science field stations and their visitors often stay with us. There is MBARI dedicated to deep sea engineering, and Moss Landing Marine Labs part of the California State University system focused on marine science research and education. The folks from Sea Imagine (seaimagine.com) were in town last week with their brand new single person submarine. They were here to launch the sub with the expert crew at Moss Landing Marine Labs. One of the unique features of the sub is that it can be transported on a trailer. They parked it out front of the inn and guests looked it over.
