At the forefront of global plastic pollution monitoring, Oceaneye bridges sailors' passion for ocean preservation and the demand for high-quality data. In 2023, Oceaneye had the pleasure of working with 15 volunteer crews. Their profiles vary widely, from young sailors coasting along the lakes of Switzerland in four-meter boats to professional crews sailing around the world on yachts over 30 meters long. Become a partner sailboat, contributing to meaningful change in international waters. Join the journey towards a cleaner, healthier ocean.
