I'm guessing it probably belongs to some university or company for monitoring/recording purposes.

This confirms that the craft is a Liquid Robotics Wave Glider rather than a clone. But the mystery remains over who was operating it, what it was doing — and why they are keeping quiet.
That is the remaining part of this mysterious/unusual event
