Vibracoring in Kauai

Gravity has been working with local company Sea Engineering doing Vibracore work as part of a shoreline enrichment project. The seas have been good and the coring has been very successful. Retaining sands is always difficult but with Gravity’s proprietary “Hanz” lexan core fingers combined with our variable frequency coring rig we were able to get some great recoveries. It’s been Amazing working in Hawaii again and with snow falling in our home state of Washington it has been a real treat to be here alongside the dolphins and humpback whales that have been near us. Sorry no pictures of the sea life but I do have ones of our coring rig on the tropical waters here in Kauai.
