Great news from Australia #ProjectReCon ! πͺ Exciting to witness #ReCon buoys in action to protect the reefs! Amazing work by all involved, congratulations @TangaroaBlue !
Another piece of ghost gear is tagged with a #ProjectReCon buoy!
Our partners at Ports North spotted this ghost gear drifting in Boyd Bay, Weipa. A GPS buoy was attached and this 2m long, 1m wide, and 6m deep ghost gear is now under our watchful eye until it can be removed.
#PacificFisheries | π Are you curious about how satellite buoys from the Industrial fisheries can benefit local communities?
π Discover how satellite buoys from stranded #FADs are being repurposed through initiatives like @Satlink #ProjectReCon.

Another day, another #ProjectReCon buoy delivered. This one is going onboard Queensland Parks And Wildlife Service's Reef Ranger!

150m+ of thick mooring rope was found snagged up on the reef. It was untangled and secured on a mooring with two #ProjectReCon buoys attached as we waited for the Cyclone to pass.
Now the winds have settled, it was recovered and removed from the Great Barrier Reef!

#ProjectReCon celebrates its 1 anniversary with over 100 fishing vessels & 22 companies on board! A massive thank you the tuna industry and to our local partners, from our founding partner @TangaroaBlue, to @nature_org and @spc_cps for making it possible!

A big THANK YOU to @ecobarge (#ReefClean partners) for providing us with all the commercial fishing beacons they have collected this year on their clean-ups!
Some of these beacons will be repurposed for #ProjectReCon to track ghost gear found in our oceans.
@SatlinkSL
So proud to see some of our #ProjectReCon buoys being reused to recover ghost gear!! Awesome work @TangaroaBlue #AMDI
#ProjectReCon trackers are ready to be distributed to #AMDI marine partners in the Cairns region!
These buoys will be used to attach to large #ghostgear found in our waterways that can't be removed immediately so we can keep track of them while recovery is organised.

When it comes to source reduction, teamwork is key! We are thrilled with the progress made in the last 12 months with @SatlinkSL on #ProjectReCon which has now won a #TunaAwards2023
This is a great example of what true collaboration can achieve.

3 weeks ago a #ProjectReCon buoy was deployed on a large #ALDFG found by AMDI partners @AusBorderForce and was kept under surveillance by @SatlinkSL to ensure that it didn't disappear.
It has now been successful retrieved and the 3 tonne #ALDFG is now out of the ocean!
We are so excited to have the Conflict Islands Conservation Initiative as a partner in #ProjectReCon!
@SatlinkSL @OurOcean
#ProjectReCon has launched in #Weipa as part of the new Ghost Net Watch community action project.
This project allows fishers and boaties to take repurposed GPS buoys on their trips and deploy them when they encounter a #ghostnet!
#CarpentariaContracting @SatlinkSL
We are excited to be continuing our 10 year partnership with the #Mapoon community in organising beach clean-ups and now working hand in hand to track ghost nets for #ProjectReCon.

#ProjectReCon βΆοΈWe are leading a worldwide πcollaborative #network of #fishing companies and local #partners to collect these devices and refurbish them for new uses, giving them a second life β»οΈ for #scientific and #environmental purposes.
3 more tuna trackers were found and added to our collection as part of #ProjectReCon.
Our objective is to repurpose these trackers to attach to large, abandoned ghost nets in the ocean, allowing us to monitor their location while recovery efforts are organised.
