The Ancient Mariners Sailing Podcast

Tackling pollution of our coastal waters


Listen Later

This week it's just Brad with special guest Deborah Maw joining him by phone. Deborah leads a bohemian life, living on the road in her campervan. An activist, mystic, explorer, environmentalist and traveller, her sailing life started early. In 2017 Deborah joined the crew of a vessel which sailed round the British Isles sampling seawater for plastics and other contamination. Sailing from Plymouth, they visited Cardiff, Belfast, Edinburgh, London as well as the Isle of Arran in the Clyde. The project was led by Professor of Marine Biology at Plymouth University, Richard Thompson and aimed to gather data, and draw attention to man made marine pollution.
