# Hebridies Mission

## In July 2011 a past Shetland conducted.

### Mission duration: 1 month

In July 2011 a past Shetland conducted. The objective of this mission was to investigate the navigational accuracy in strong current conditions. The weather conditions were fair during the mission. The line in purple shows the track the Sailbuoy followed. The track that was defined in this mission had plenty of leeway to give the Sailbuoy room to maneuver.
