I saw her in Falmouth fully fitted out and undergoing acceptance trials in September 1984. 1985-02-13 is date of first cruise. In Jan. 2007, the name associated with the code 74AB was changed to OCEAN RESEARCHER. In Feb. 2007 an additional code was created for the OCEAN RESEARCHER. In 2009, the platform group agreed attribute change and code creation procedures. The name for 74AB was changed back to CHARLES DARWIN.
