recovery mission with Royo @cleanjurassiccoast I’d heard reports of a sunken vessel of the coast on our favourite spot, then Rich @1994rhphotography messaged to say how much was breaking off!! Huge thanks to him for piling a load of it up. Me and Royo headed down with our childish optimism, an empty washing up bottle and some sellotape and did what we could! After a very early start and several hours we recovered a large amount of the stricken vessel. Plans are being hatched to return with some stronger sellotape and a few extra empty washing up bottles, to try and recover the rest! We were up against it, and it wasn’t partially safe so we did what we could, and celebrated with a pasty after at @squareandcompasshg like you do. Shame that boats are left to smash to pieces like this when they have been known about, whose job is it? ‘Not my problem’ springs to mind… anyway thanks to the continued support from @greenfolkltd we are able to continue to get stuck in, and spring to action! Thanks Roy too, couldn’t have done it without you, let’s get back out ASAP and get the rest. #plasticpollution #projectplanetearth #cleanjurassiccoast #beachclean #dorset #chapmanspool #marinedebris (fb)

Percy lives!! The amazing @glennsculptures built us Percy a few years back and she’s been about a bit! From Loch Ness to the Jurassic Coast, and all this adventure had taken its toll! Honestly she’s been the most valuable tool in our arsenal of awareness and we just had to give her a new lease of life! Glenn built her entirely from ocean recovered items and did an incredible job! The fins had always been tricky to load in and out of the van and eventually we clumsily managed to break them. Also, a bash to the head meant Percy had a serious neck issue! Remember that one Roy 🤣 @cleanjurassiccoast She was treated to an overhaul, so here she is, Percy Mk2, with removable fins, and (utilising an old Stihl driveshaft) a neck upgrade! She’s ready for festival season, talking of which, we will be at Studland, all day this coming Sunday the 8th, with Percy, so come and say hi! #awareness #sculpture #projectplanetearth #jurassiccoast #dorsetcoast #beachclean #plasticpollution #ocean (fb)
