If there were expected encounters with jellyfish, we would most definitely want Dr. Angel Yanagihara on our escort boat.
The woman knows jellyfish like Michael Oram knows navigation in the English Channel.
Dr. Yanagihara is on her way to Cuba now from Honolulu to Cuba in order to participate on Diana Nyad’s attempt across the Strait of Florida. In October she will attend the Global Open Water Swimming Conference in October, sharing her research and knowledge on jellyfish.
