A piece at a time

Being environmentalist often times I come across people and after long conversations we end up at this... "What if" moment.
Just as an example it could be
  • What if I don't drive my car every time it's further than 100 meters/yards
  • What if I look at the labels and don't buy endangered species fish
  • What if I pick up that wrapper I see in the street?

And there are many more of those questions. Now for me the big step is that if all the thousands of people who ask exactly those questions would actually stop asking them and just stepped up and did what they are thinking about we were one step further already!

So here is the idea: What if we all made an attempt and at least one time a day we actually did what everyone is talking about? Go ahead, pick up that piece of garbage before it ends up in the ocean.
Pick your bike for that errand, that is only a few meters away, have a closer look at the label and maybe check back if that is really what you want to buy.

It is small things that make a difference if followed by a lot of people!

And just as a motivational starter: Feel free to share your little moments of victory on Facebook, flickr, twitter, Instagram and whatever else there is out there and mark them so we can all see that YOU stopped talking and started acting! #APieceAtATime

Sailing Turkey to Greece in 50 knot storm - INDEPENDENCE AT SEA Video Log 2

This time in our upgrade we get CAUGHT IN A STORM... But on the plus side, we gained a lot more trust and faith in our Independence feeling even more secure that she is a strong and solid boat more than capable of taking out a team of researchers for all the Objectives you might come up with! So make sure to let us know if YOU are working on a project that could potentially need a boat to be run on a reasonable budget!

Moving on to new shores

This time around we created not just one but TWO different videos to tell you the story of the latest developments. What we would need from YOU to do is to tell us which version you like better so we can work in the right direction in the episodes to come!

Getting Ready again

Sea Nomad at Anchor in Boulder Bay With the End of the Season right in front of us there is one last showdown coming out here on Boulder Island in the Mergui Archipelago. The Owner of "Boulder Bay Eco Resort" along aith 30 friends and employees is coming out here for 4 days and a big meeting amongst all the higher ranks of his endeavour. For us (Project Manaia) this could be the time when things are decided for the next Seasons to come. With bureaucracy in Myanmar being rather painful and difficult to deal with (and more expensive than most other places in the world) it is somewhat questionable if Sea Nomad will be able to sail Myanmar waters again any time soon. Also because our 2 year Permit for Mergui will be expired by the beginning of the next Season. We are already looking into Projects in the Philippines to Pursue ones Sea Nomad had her earned Rest back in Phuket and another little makeover befor heading past Sinagpore and on to the Philippines.
