Plastiki, a 60-foot catamaran made from 12,500 reclaimed bottles and a recyclable plastic called srPET, will set sail on Saturday, March 20 from Sausalito, California. Adventurer and environmentalist David de Rothschild and his crew will embark on a 100 day ocean adventure across the Pacific to Sydney, Australia. The team hopes to send the message that waste can be reused in new ways.

Be sure to check out Plastiki.

Track the voyage!
