It looks like a good way to clean up the oceans swirling garbage pits. I’m all for it. |

Not sure if anyone bought test models. Needs an addition. We have to aerate harbors here when the bait fish, sardines and anchovies mostly, get too thick and suffocate. Add an aerator to the unit and have best of all worlds. |

I am sure I pull more trash out of the water every year than anyone else here. Probably more than everyone put together. |

Sort of... The problem is the amount that sinks to the bottom and collects on the reefs or washes up on beaches. Most floating trash ends up sinking pretty fast. That is why I never go by something floating without stopping and picking it up. That may be our last chance to grab it. |

Been there. |

A rare Leatherback is observed sometimes. |
