This cruise report describes the objectives, methods, and preliminary results from the tasks carried out at the CRIMAC SFI survey. The survey was conducted on board RV G.O. Sars between November 15th (Tromsø) and November 21st (Tromsø); in the fjords around Tromsø, from Malangen to Kvænangen. The main objective was to test the Kongsberg Sounder capabilities, including noise testing, weather window testing and safe operations. Other tasks were broad banded calibration procedures, testing two new Kongsberg discovery transducers (18kHz and 333kHz), automated predictions from the deep vision system, and an experiment testing whether herring are affected from a whale deterring device or not (FHF project).
