This is interesting - a 60-foot catamaran boat named Plastiki, constructed out of recycled plastic bottles, is planning to make a cross-Pacific Ocean from San Francisco to Australia. Depature is set for April 28th. This is kind of a cross between Kon-Tiki and modern-day beachcombing -- I doubt Thor Heyerdahl had the option of using plastic bottles for his historic trip. I wonder if they will have an actual plastic tiki on board. More information on the journey can be found here ..... Vern |
