We’re back to being active on Twitter and in the Gulf of Maine - working hard to clean up our oceans #marinedebris #gggi #gulfofmaine

Who’s ready to start building and launching? 🖐 #studentdrifters #stemeducation #handsonlearning

Unique opportunity for #media to join an expedition on Thursday, June 6th in Portland, Maine that will remove a 5,000 pound 'Ghost Gear' ball from Gulf of Maine. Local & National NGOs partnering: Gulf of Maine Lobster Foundation, GGGI, & Ocean Conservancy. More details: 11thhourracing.org/local-and-nati…

#Ghostgear balls are like tumbleweeds, explains Gulf of Maine Lobster Foundation’s Erin Pelletier Ocean Conservancy GGGI removal effort, supported by 11th Hour Racing. They float and travel around, collecting more and more junk, getting bigger and bigger.

First haul a major success, two more to come. Looking more like a 10,000-pound #ghostgear ball coming onboard. Gulf of Maine Lobster Foundation GGGI Ocean Conservancy 11th Hour Racing

Is #ghostgear the real kraken? 😱 Well, no. But this gear ball was sure scary. Thanks to Ocean Conservancy, GGGI, Gulf of Maine Lobster Foundation, 11th Hour and all the amazing technical divers and fishers (including Steve Train) who helped remove it.

Thank you Elizabeth for making this happen! 147 traps and 8 barrels of rope all removed from the ocean. x.com/EHHogan/status…

We couldn't do this without the generosity of local fishermen and their crew. Keep up the good work! x.com/fvhattierose/s…
