An Interruption
In the realm of environmental activism, innovation often springs from the simplest ideas. Samuel McLennan, the founder of Project Interrupt, epitomises this ethos. His ambitious project involves sailing a raft up the coast of Australia, constructed entirely from waste materials collected from Tasmania's shores. After 18 months of meticulous building, Samuel is now embarking on his journey from Hobart to Sydney. This daring initiative is not just about the journey; it's about sending a powerful message on the importance of a clean planet for current and future generations.
I’m not really sure what this has got to do with a wooden boat sailing magazine, but there’s something I admire about the irreverence, the eccentricity and the chutzpah of Samuel McLennan . Some of you may have seen him in Constitution Dock, Hobart earlier this year.

Or for an Audio version have a listen to ABC Radio Gippsland from earlier this week. But please start at the 36 minutes and 50 second mark, as the rest is drivel. (click on image for audio)
