The NOAA Ship Gordon Gunter departed Pascagoula Mississippi on January 8, 2007 for the Meso-American System Transport & Ecology Research Cruise (MASTER Cruise). The cruise was a joint international effort between NOAA's Southeast Fisheries Science Center and the Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory, El Colegio de La Frontera Sur (ECOSUR) in Chetumal, Centro de Investigacion y de Estudios Avanzados (CINVESTAV) in Merida, Mexico, and the University of Belize.

The cruise was directed at surveying the coral reef fish larval distribution and physical oceanography of the western Caribbean coast from the Yucatan Channel to the waters of southern Belize. Known grouper spawning locations were specifically targeted such as the one at Mahahual, Mexico
