![]() On a positive boating related post..... 9:32 This is really cool..... I hope they find a green use for this recycled material. There sure is going to be a LOT of it.... https://www.fastcompany.com/40560810...ut-to-set-sail ........... It’s a great idea but fiscally it wouldn’t pay off but that’s not the point I’m sure. It looks like a good way to clean up the oceans swirling garbage pits. I’m all for it. |

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