Recycled Chlorine-Free Paper / Soy Ink Robert Channing Seamans, Jr.

October 30, 1918 – June 28, 2008

Bob Seamans was closely associated “humble and unassuming” with Sea Education Association for over 30 years. He was recruited to serve on SEA’s Board by James Madden in 1977, and was Board Chair from 1989 to 1993. The lecture hall in the Madden Center on the Woods Hole Campus is named for Dr. Seamans, and SEA’s newest vessel was named in his honor in 2001. This year the SSV Robert C. Seamans embarked on its eighth academic year of carrying students to sea to study the oceans. On November 3, 2008 Board Chair Linda Cox Maguire read this into the record at the Semi-Annual Meeting of the Corporation of Sea Education Association. On June 28, 2008, we were saddened to learn of the death of Robert C. Seamans, Jr. SEA lost an emeriti trustee, an inspirational leader, and a loyal supporter and friend. Bob had been involved with SEA since he was recruited by Jimmy Madden in 1977 and, as recently as last November’s Semi-Annual meeting, was an active and enthusiastic participant in its governance. He was a man of great accomplishment and SEA was fortunate to have had his leadership as Board Chair from 1989 to 1993. During his term as Board Chair there was a marked growth in SEA’s endowment and he established a new precedent by setting a term for the position of Board Chair. All who worked with Bob knew him to be thoughtful, thorough, analytical and smart. But he will be remembered most as an optimistic, a gentle and a compassionate man. He was modest despite all his achievements and required quite a bit of persuasion before he agreed to the naming of SEA’s newest vessel. We are honored that he agreed and glad that the SSV Robert C. Seamans that bears his name will carry so many students to sea to study the oceans. So rather than observe a moment of silence in his memory, let us celebrate by saluting him today with a hearty round of applause.

Bob was a skillful and competitive racing captain. I was delighted to be his navigator on several races. At the time of his “His strong family support, first Marblehead to Halifax race, Bob was Deputy Administrator of NASA working with especially Gene, his wife, made all this possible.” the Apollo program while a satellite navigation system, now known as GPS, was being developed. After two days of fog and clouds, we were off Cape Sable at the southern tip of Nova Scotia with only a rough dead reckoning position. Fortunately the weather cleared sufficiently to enable me to get a few evening star sights. As I was computing our position with the Nautical Almanac and tables, Bob, sensing my feeling of self importance, looked over my shoulder and, with his smile and good humor, said, “Paul, you better enjoy your celestial navigation while you can, because soon you will be obsolete!” —Paul Perkins, SEA Trustee Emeritus

Two days before Dad died, I had a chance to chat with him. He described what a wonderful career he had with NASA, the Air Force, the Carnegie Institute, National Geographic, Academy of Engineering, Sea Education Association, MIT and Harvard. His strong family support, especially Gene, his wife, made all this possible. No matter how busy Dad was, he always found time to be with his family. —Robert Seamans III (Toby), oldest son of Bob and Gene Seamans

Even in his final moments, his optimism shown brightly, giving reassurance, as it always did, to those of us around him. In the face of a battle he knew he could not win, his…no-nonsense pragmatism and his determination served him well. It made his life worth living. —Joseph Seamans, middle son of Bob and Gene Seamanss 2 Following SEA Winter/Spring 2009 “He lived his life with optimism and joy.”

Robert C. Seamans, Jr., Trustee Emeritus and former SEA Board Chair, was born in Salem, Massachusetts on October 30, 1918. He attended Lenox School, received his BS from Harvard and both an MS in Aeronautics and PhD in instrumentation from MIT. Dr. Seamans helped lead the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) during the years after 1961 when President John F. Kennedy declared his intent to land Americans on the moon. He was instrumental in the 1968 decision to send Apollo 8 to the moon, despite some staff objections, and it was this successful mission that led to the lunar landing in 1969. He remained a consultant to the NASA administrator after returning to MIT in 1968 as a visiting professor. After serving as secretary of the Air Force from 1969 to 1973, he was then named by President Ford as administrator of the Energy, Research and Development Administration in 1974. Dr. Seamans became dean of the School of Engineering at MIT in 1977 and continued to teach there even after his retirement in 1984. words Bob lived by A family man, he took great pleasure from time spent with “My brother Bobby was an ever optimist, so Life is an arrow.

A large group of the Seamans family attended the 2001 commissioning of the boat in Tacoma, WA where Dr. Seamans spoke and presented the ship’s library with a signed copy of his autobiographical book, Aiming at Targets. Early during 2003, Bob and Gene Seamans, along with son Joe and grandson Michael traveled, at SEA’s invitation, to Tahiti to sail on the new vessel. During that trip, Joe remembers that his parents, then in their 80’s, were offered the option of standing watch but there was no question that they were going to do it, sometimes getting up in the middle of the night to do so. Bob Seamans was actively involved with SEA until six months before his death on June 28, 2008. He attended both the June 2007 Annual Meeting in Woods Hole, and the November Semi-Annual meeting that same year, giving a spontaneous inspirational speech to Trustees, Overseers, faculty and staff about opportunities in the future. He will be missed.

Following SEA Winter/Spring 2009 3 Rafe Parker’s Reminiscences of Bob Seamans

Jimmy Madden introduced Bob to SEA in the late 70s. that trip was the joy of sharing with Bob our passion for jazz. Jimmy lived on Boston’s North Shore near Bob and both were Amidst the cries and squabbles of birds seeking the best perch keen sailors, close friends and members of the CCA. for the night, and with a drink in our hands, we would watch the Though Bob stayed in the background for a number of years sunset listening to the best of John Coltrane, Louis Armstrong, early during my tenure at SEA, he attended all the major board Charlie Parker, Duke Ellington and Fats Waller.

Ann Brewer, a long time friend of the Well, it was not too long before we were campaigning for Seamans family, took over with the clear understanding that another vessel. By this time Bob had stepped down as chair. she was simply an interim Chairman. Others had taken over. But his interest in SEA continued to be After he joined the Executive Committee, it was increasingly as strong as ever. Although we had named the lecture hall in clear that Bob just might agree to take over from Ann as the the Madden Center after him, the thought of having his name next full term Chair. He was approached and, after careful on the new ship was always at the back of my mind. It was clear consideration, Bob accepted. that she should have a name worthy of her. It was also clear that From this point onwards, Bob made it clear that his goal was the campaign needed an infusion of fresh blood if we were to to “institutionalize” the organization’s governance. The meet our fundraising goal. structure, membership and goals of the Board’s standing It was about this time when Paul Perkins, a long-time committees were reviewed and, where appropriate, re- member of the Board and one of Bob’s closest friends, called organized.

He said that he and Bob were participating in their wanted to bring SEA more in line with institutions of higher annual tennis tournament and he was wondering if we would education. He worked to have research project guidelines ever consider naming the new ship after Bob. “Of course!” I revised to have more academic credibility and relevance. He said. “I’ve often thought of the idea. Would Bob be interested in changed my title of Executive Director to President and, most having his name on the boat?” Paul’s response was, “I don’t importantly, instituted clear guidelines as to how the President know, but you might try asking him.

We talked a little It was important for him to know what I was going to say. He more about the vessel as well as his desire to have the name would review my report for each meeting. Inevitably, I would include his middle initial. Later, Bob and Gene worked together build my report around some philosophical idea. At first, it was hard for him to understand why I would approach the report that way. I explained there was so much factual data being fed to the board at these meetings, there had to be a way to talk about our educational mission in more conceptual, philosophical terms. He eventually came to enjoy “Father Parker’s sermons”, as he called them. Bob was very concerned that I take my allotted vacation time, something that was not so easy to do. With this in mind, he invited Kate and me to join him and Gene for a week’s sailing on the Chesapeake aboard Viva. We accepted with much enthusiasm. Aboard Viva, we had a wonderful time exploring the creeks of the Chesapeake. I had come to know those waters well so was able to introduce Bob and Gene to some quiet anchorages they Robert C. Seamans, Jr.; Bob Seamans and Rafe Parker at the commissioning, hadn’t known. But, what has stood out most in my memory of June 23, 2001

We are grateful to each donor listed in this report for the part you played last year to help us build a strong foundation as we approached these challenging times. You will be glad to hear that SEA is serving students at the highest level of quality and safety – continuing its strong tradition as a superb off-campus program. As our nation – and the world – slip into a deep recession, the challenges associated with our commitment to excellence are becoming increasingly great. The problems we face are shared throughout higher education. Endowments have suffered, reducing resources to fund scholarships and support budgets; expenses have risen; and families are retrenching financially, waiting for these difficult times to pass. We lost nearly 20 enrolled students this past fall after the economy took its dramatic, downward turn, largely because of their parents’ concerns about costs. We seem to have steadied this initial market reaction. We have made an even stronger case for the value of SEA, and we are doing all that we can to reduce the strain on families through financial aid. In order to sustain this commitment, we are turning to our dedicated alumni and friends. We will be reaching out to you, asking that you help us help students and reward the hard work of our faculty, staff, and crew. So, we are designing new academic programs, welcoming outstanding students, and carefully tending to our ships. An exciting strategic plan we just completed in June is guiding us toward a point on the horizon that is directed by both what we hold most dear Linda Cox Maguire, Chair in our mission and what we find most compelling about serving students in the future. Board of Trustees, February 2009 We hope that you will help us get there.

She’s the world with my family on NATASHA, our a Topsail schonner, 100 feet long. Just before we were going to leave a 16 foot whaler 38-foot ketch. In February 1972 during our came by. A man in it said for us to come over. They use a 9 foot Avon to land. We saw circumnavigation, we crossed paths with the them flip it. So we went over. When we got aboard it was lunch time. The Captain WESTWARD in James Bay, Galapagos Islands. invited us for lunch. We had bread, Potateo salad, and Cold MEATLOAF. Boy, that was She was on W-1, her first SEA voyage. The good. The boys didn’t respect there captain or us. The didn’t have shirts on ether (note: following is an excerpt from my log regarding a family rule of ours was to have shirts on at meals). The Captain is Roger Gray and his that event; I’ve left my original spelling and wife is Frances Gray. Frances Gray gave us six Whole Canned Chickens. O boy. grammar. The Westward. She had a break in her deck ¾ of the way aft. Nice engine room. Her yard was on deck. 46 feet long. They put it up in James Bay. Almost no doors have handels. They have a key. Lot of doors have keys sitting in them. There’s a watertight door with a key hole. The one thing I didn’t understand are the watches. There is seven people on a watch. They stand watch day and night, port or sea. They stand four hour watches. In 11 days they saw the Galapagos. The people on watch don’t get to sea that port. Daddy was interested in it because of the (Brigantine) Yankee. The builder talked to daddy about sertain things. It was the first time daddy had been aboard. After we got back a boat from the Westward came by. We invited them aboard. Jeff Davis and Larry J. Hobbs. Larry was a mate and got paid. Jeff had to pay. Larry has had lots of experiences. His address is Waimanalo, Hawaii. He was neat. That night the Perrine kids and Bercaw kids went to the Westward. We had cold strong Kool-Aid. The next morning we were going to have pig liver. But when we smelled it, it had already spoiled. The pigs heart still was good. We had pigs heart. It was just like liver except firmer. We had dinner that afternoon; Pork and Sweet & Sour sauce, carrots and rice. Trina, Mommy and me took a hike. We were planning to hike to Buccaner Cove. We got pictures of the Westward and started hiking. We hiked, hiked, and double hiked. Finally we got on the left side of a big hill. Wrong side. After supper Daddy showed his Yankee lectiour on the Westward. The French, Perrines, Bercaws and Four Winds people. Four Winds is a 60 foot schooner. The people on it are making a movie. Daddy showed it with there (the WW’s) projecter from the capanion way. We had to take all the slides from the cardtriges and put them in order in a big box. He made a very good lecture. He added two pictures of Natasha. Bravo! We had cold Kool-Aid afterwards. ■

Sean Bercaw served as Captain on the SEA faculty from 1994 to 2003. This story is a followup to “Message in a Bottle” (Following SEA, Winter/Spring 2008). During 1972, when sailing around the world with his family, he encountered Westward on its first SEA cruise. 18 Following SEA Winter/Spring 2009 There was a second crossing of paths for W-1 alumna Cheryl McKinley and former SEA Captain Sean Bercaw in August of 2008. During an Alumni and Parent Cruise onboard the SSV Robert C. Seamans. Sean and Cheryl realized that their paths had also crossed 36 years earlier during the (Above) A page from Westward’s log that voyage of SEA’s first class on RV Westward. notes the visit of the Bercaw family and a Cheryl was one of the 15 student apprentices setting sail on January 6, 1972 from San photograph of Westward at anchor in James Diego on what was described in the June 1972 issue of SAIL magazine as “her first of a Bay in the Galapagos, taken by Sean’s father, continuing series of oceanographic expeditions to remote places around the world.” The Jay Bercaw. voyage was to take them to the volcanic island Socorro, off the coast of Mexico, on to the Galapagos Islands for an extended stop, through the Panama Canal and on to Puerto Rico. Cheryl’s return visit to the Galapagos Islands in 2007 had led her to reconnect with SEA and then sign up for the S-218D alumni sail. By chance Sean had been recruited by SEA to sail as a Mate on that same trip and ended up on the same watch as Cheryl. As a boy, Sean had been sailing round the world on his family’s ketch, Natasha, when Westward was sighted at anchor in the Galapagos. Although Sean’s father Jay had never seen the boat, he had been consulted on its construction by Drayton Cochran, Westward’s original owner, and thus recognized it right away. Cheryl remembered the Bercaw family’s visit to the vessel, especially the slide show of the 5th voyage of the Brigantine Yankee that was viewed on deck by the apprentices. Jay had been Mate on both the 5th and 6th world voyages on the Yankee. Asked about comparisons in what she experienced on the Seamans versus her W-1 trip, Cheryl responds that the pace is very familiar; watch standing, camaraderie and teamwork are also similar. The grace and elegance of the ship was the same. “There seems to be a bit greater emphasis on science today as compared to more seamanship in 1972,” she said. The same 1972 SAIL magazine article though, describes W-1 off watch activity as “lectures on a broad spectrum of subjects including ocean currents, water systems, sea water physics and chemistry, bottom topography, plankton life, cetacean physiology and behavior, marine ecological systems, navigation, meteorology and sailing theory.” ■

Following SEA Winter/Spring 2009 19 SCIENCE CORNER Climate Science at Sea

WHOI/SEA joint coring expedition to Society Islands, French Polynesia By Jan Witting, PhD, Chief Scientist onboard the Robert C. Seamans, WHOI@SEA January 2009

Do increasing global temperatures have an effect on the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events? For coastal communities, the relationship between global warming and cyclone activity is particularly interesting for reasons that are altogether obvious. This is the question that recently brought WHOI scientist Dr. Jeff Donnelly to the Society Islands, French Polynesia on board the SSV Robert C. Seamans. The mission of the ten-day research cruise was to map and sample the soft sediment deposits of the lagoon environments of Tahaa, Bora Bora and Huahine. These sediments potentially preserve a detailed weather record all through to the end of the last ice age some 10,000 years ago. The sediment is an aggregation of weathering products running down from the volcanic peaks of the islands, and calcium carbonate produced by invertebrates and algae on the surrounding coral reefs.

20 Following SEA Winter/Spring 2009 The basic idea behind this research effort is that large storm events will generate sediment and debris that is discernibly different from the usual gradual accumulation. On the reef side, the large seas break large corals off the reef and roll them around. The resulting mixture of coral sand and shell fragments is then washed over the reef and deposited in the lagoon. On the land side the large rainfall accelerates erosion and moves larger particles down the steep inclines and swollen rivers. After the storm is over, the usual gradual sedimentation process proceeds and eventually buries the evidence of the storm. Repeat this process for thousands of years, and you potentially have a very nice record of major storms locked in the lagoon sediments. Dr. Donnelly and his science party of six boarded the ship in Papeete on the 10th of January. The cruise had been in the planning for about a year, and much of the research gear had been loaded on the ship in San Diego before the two fall sea semesters. After Some results from a CHIRP survey of Bora departing Papeete in the afternoon of January 10, we traveled some 115 nautical miles to Bora. The small map on top right shows the the twin islands of Raiatea and Tahaa where we spent the next five days. A routine for island and the route of the ship, while the the work quickly established itself, with the mornings and early afternoons filled with gray trace on top shows in a linear form the acoustic CHIRP sonar surveys of the lagoon sediments, followed in the afternoon by a bottom and sub-bottom profile for the whole few core samples of selected locations. ship track.

These maps show multiple layers deep beneath the present appeared some 10,000 years ago. You can see day seafloor, and with the help of one 4m long core sample Dr. Andrea Hawkes (a Post- the outline of this ancient seafloor as the first Doc from WHOI) was able to determine that one of the most prominent layers was the dark line below the surface of the bottom exposed ground during the last ice age. Above this layer, a quick look at some of the sediments, which appear as the darkest band cores showed evidence of shallower layers of coarser sediments that seem indicative of in the CHIRP trace. Note also that you can storm events. So both the acoustic data and the core samples have been very promising. Our next target was Bora Bora, and after two busy days there we traveled to Maroe see multiple more outlines deeper down in Bay in Huahine, where we have just spent a productive day conducting another acoustic the sediment, evidence that with long survey and collecting core samples. Tomorrow we’ll head back for Tahiti after trying to enough core it would be possible to sample collect a final 5.5m long core using an extended tube welded together today. From much older sediments reflecting deposition Papeete some of the cores will be shipped directly to WHOI, others will detour with the that occurred tens of thousands of years ago. Seamans to Hawaii and will reach the lab later in the spring. At WHOI in Dr. Donnelly’s lab, a host of detailed lab analyses will examine aspects of the elemental composition of the cores millimeter by millimeter, helping to identify certain events in time that have left an identifiable marker in the sediment record. Isotopes from the atmospheric nuclear testing, for example, can be used to date layers from the 1950’s. Other methods will include carbon dating, grain size analysis and pollen and foraminiferan microfossil analysis. From all this Dr. Donnelly hopes to reconstruct a detailed, dated record of cyclone strikes in these islands for the past 4,000 or so years. Given that the Pacific cyclone frequency is closely tied to El Niño, this research may provide new information of El Niño occurrence as well. One of the graduate students on board, Michael Toomey (alumnus of SEA WHOI/MIT 2008 program) will use the collected data for much of his PhD thesis work in the coming years. So it has been a very successful research cruise. With no students, the life led on board took an a little different working rhythm for us. For the deck crew led by Capt. Phil Sacks, the acoustic surveys meant busy days of precise piloting in the very close quarters between the reefs and the islands while stopping for coring presented plenty of exercise in anchoring. As for the science crew, we were very busy helping to develop deployment methods for the vibracorer from the Seamans, something new to us and the boat. Running the ship’s gear during deployments was our routine, while after the first couple of days introduction to our CHIRP system the WHOI crew was able to take over the Vibracorer recovery with the 3.5 m core daily lab operations for the acoustic surveys. barrel. Drs. Jonathan Woodruff, Andrew Overall, it was a very positive collaboration. Summarizing it like this of course misses Ashton, Jeff Donnelly, and Andrea Hawkes much of the experience, the sights we were treated to by the various islands, the balmy (l-r) are preparing to detach the core tube weather, the meals…. Personally one of the most rewarding parts of this cruise has been from the vibracore head and bring it the working community on board. We had one lab and six deck volunteers whose help onboard. You can see how deep the core was instrumental and who, with the WHOI science party and regular crew made this a penetrated from the line of sediment on the successful, fun cruise. Don’t be surprised to read more about similar work in the future! ■ outside of the steel core.
