Vessels

The primary purpose of these vessels is to empower Crystal Ailan to continue its vital mission of collecting eligible plastic waste across the beautiful islands of the Torres Strait 🏝, while also expanding efforts to remove harmful marine debris from all accessible coastal and marine environments where plastic pollution has taken a toll.

​

By increasing both mobility and reach, these vessels will significantly enhance Crystal Ailan’s capacity to access remote communities and hard-to-reach shorelines, ensuring that no area is left behind in the fight against plastic waste. They play a critical role in enabling the safe and efficient transport of collected materials, while also supporting the organization’s broader goal of protecting land, sea, and culture for future generations.

​

In essence, the introduction of these vessels will lead to a substantial increase in the collection and recovery of both eligible plastic materials and marine debris, contributing to a cleaner, healthier ocean and stronger, more sustainable communities throughout the Torres Strait.
