After 26 years of operations at sea with the research platform FLIP, a 355-ft.-long craft which has a draft of 300 ft. in the vertical position, planning is underway for a larger, more capable FLIP II that can operate in seas with waves of up to 80 ft. and survive more severe seas. The author discusses scientific and engineering communities regarding the design and potential uses of a larger FLIP II. Current thinking centers around a 420-ft.-long, 30-ft.-diameter hull with a smaller water-plane diameter of 20 ft. All-weather deployment capability of submersibles from the bottom of FLIP II (draft 340 ft.) is considered. The types of research that are performed utilizing FLIP, including ocean acoustics/underwater sound and physical oceanography, are described. Other issues discussed include mooring operations with FLIP/FLIP II and typical operating costs.
