In the summer of 2007, brothers Ryan and Bryson Robertson and good friend Hugh Patterson began their dream to sail the world and bring awareness to plastic pollution in our Oceans. They departed La Paz, Mexico, embarking on the three-year circumnavigation in July 2007. After spending 2007 crossing the great Pacific Ocean, the crew and Khulula have entered the Indian Ocean and are currently anchored off Seragan Island on the island of Bali, Indonesia. Their next great challenge will be crossing the Indian Ocean, which will take place between September and December, 2009. “ We are surfers, sailors, and explorers and this is our adventure of research, education and exploration. Our dream is to circumnavigate the globe to document the polluted state of the oceans and beaches we visit, search out the best waves and meet new people. We want to inspire everyone we connect with to consider their personal impact on the oceans by taking more care in how they live on a day-to-day basis.”

Hello faithful Oceangybe Blog readers, once again I find myself in front of the computer after much too long of a break from an update.
So, where to start? Geez, well there have been many events and experiences that have caused me to pause contemplate the different facets of this adventure and probe there impact on me more deeply. In fact, I have a total of 5 incomplete blogs on the go at the moment, all waiting for the right combination of time, literary inspiration and flat surf. I fear this combination is unlikely to occur any time soon. But wait, since you're reading this, there must have been some symbiotic collusion to bring forth these words…. Well, that, or the constant probing and a challenge/ultimatum from my fellow crew to get on with it already! So it is finally time to complete at least one. |
