The pressure series ends early at line 3047 (2359 25 Nov 93).
The minimum recorded pressure corresonds to a depth about 99 m
deeper than the nominal depth. 

Speed and direction contain a gap in lines 1908 - 1912 (0159
23 Aug 93 - 0959 23 Aug 93). CMDAC has prepared an alternate
version of the file in which this gap has been bridged by
predictive interpolation. Both versions are available on this
disk.
