The R/V Joanne Daiber provides an outstanding experiential classroom for students engaged in coastal research as well as state-of-the-art capabilities for faculty research in the Delaware Bay and nearshore. It is a 46-foot research vessel designed to function in a range of habitats from the bay estuaries to the shelf break.

The R/V Joanne Daiber is named in honor of the late Joanne Daiber, for the devotion she had for the University of Delaware Marine Program, and the professional sacrifices she made along the way.
