Crayton Fenn of Seattle, Washington. Crayton is a highly experienced Side Scan Sonar operator, and an accomplished diver. Crayton's real work began when the expidition finally found the proper lake.
James Negris of Everett, Washington. A BOEING CAD CAM software program writer, James is an electronic wizard, and an accomplished diver. We made it a point of kidding James about his primary role -- that of a MULE. If we were unable to get into the lake with the transport aircraft, James "would get to help us portage the gear from the beach overland to the lake!"
