Green Boating Tips
You can stay green on the blue water. Some minor choices can have a major impact
Thoughtful Provisioning: Reduce your plastics load
When buying food for the boat or packing what you have prepared, there can be a tremendous reliance on single-use plastics. A certain amount of that is unavoidable, but with a degree of planning you can reduce the plastic impact as well as the trash content rolling around your boat.
Sunscreen: Make Mine "Reef Safe"
TL/DR: Don't use ingredients oxybenzone or octinoxate, or sunscreens with nanoparticles. DO use titanium or zinc dioxide.
