Today, Monday, aye, okay! The sailboat, the Plastiki, a 60-foot (18-meter) ocean-going craft, made largely from 12,500 recycled plastic bottles, managed to make its way to harbor in Sydney, after four difficult months of weathering ocean storms, during an 8,000 nautical miles journey from San Francisco, crossing the Pacific Ocean, stopping along the way at island nations, on a trip, a stunt, meant to raise awareness of plastic waste. How making a boat and sailing it for four months is the best way to do that? I don't know.
The boat was hard to steer, and according to an Associated Press report, the crew "struggled to maneuver into port, outside the Australian National Maritime Museum." A crowd as big as about a hundred people were on hand to welcome the boat arrive.
Gee! Only a hundred / rather only about a hundred. Maybe folks found other things to do? See the video.
