Students had an early start today at 4 am! In two different shifts they got to learn about crabbing with a local waterman, Captain Clay. The students caught two blue crabs in the bay, one of which Clay described as a jumbo crab. After that the students got back on the boat to learn more about the biology of crabs while using the live specimens as models. The captain of the Sigsbee also spent today teaching students about navigation and how to use landforms to identify where the boat is located. The day ended with some well deserved swimming at the beach. At camp students completed the full circle of their crab education as the staff of LCF walked them through how to eat crab!
