ANGARI Foundation, a nonprofit private operating foundation in West Palm Beach, Florida, has turned a luxury yacht into a 65-ft. research vessel, the RV ANGARI, to help marine scientists conduct more convenient and affordable research. Since becoming operational in 2016, the vessel has hosted more than 400 scientists on expeditions in and along the U.S. East Coast, the Florida Keys and Dry Tortugas, the Gulf of Mexico, and the northern Caribbean.

ANGARI Foundation is dedicated to creating a global community that is interested, knowledgeable, and invested in marine and environmental sciences by directly supporting research initiatives that foster a greater trust and dialogue between scientists and the public. The foundation uses innovative technology, film, and other media to raise awareness and strengthen science education.
