how we stop the plastic soup.

in #nature7 years ago

What a strange and thought provoking coincidence it is, that the entire leisure marine industry has been transformed over the last 50 years…by plastic. And yet today, the wrong kind of plastic threatens the very environment that affords us the freedom and enjoyment of our boating and water sports.Let us explain: In 1959 the very first plastic (polyester/GRP) boat was manufactured and sold in the USA by the late Connie Ray, the founder of the well known Sea Ray boat building company. This in turn led to the advent of high volume production yachts, and they soon became more affordable for people with average incomes. Through the 70’s and 80’s the number of new of boats entering the market grew exponentially, thus bringing the pastime of boating to the masses like never before!
