    Interesting boat wrecks , I often wonder about the stories that led them to that part of our Qld coast line and if the people that used them are safe , that was a lot of blue rope and no shortage of Pumice Stone. The aerial shot of all the sand hills was interesting . I know that if I was up that part Queensland you wouldn't see me for weeks at a time , I would be full on fossick mode plus I'd be packing out the rubbish. I sent a message to GreenPeace to have a look at some of your videos because of all the plastic whether or not they invest some time into it or not is another story considering how much people take notice of other countries rubbish but fail to see what's in our own front yard . I remember beachcombing on South Stradbroke when I was in my mid to late teens and there was very little plastic and that was 54 years ago I'm 70 now and far away from the ocean and rivers and mangroves I love, so I am always checking the beaches and mangroves you comb for Amber and glass floats etc So thanks for taking me/us along it always a pleasure and relaxing seeing the beaches and what gets washed up on our shorelines. Cheers Mate👍👍👍😎💨🏴‍☠☮☮☕☕

      Pile up the plastics and netting with driftwood and burn it - above the tide line. Probably laws against it but the most efficient way. With the wood and a breeze the fire is hot enough to do a good combustion of the plastic. On the other hand, that is the cleanest "garbage" I have ever seen. And you could fill a barge with all the strings of floats and balls. A couple hundred Boy Scouts and other volunteers could do quite a bit in a few days. At least to one island. On the other hand, is it really doing any damage as is?

    Saturday 30th September 2023, Oh yeah the odd bottle with the copper base and the trigger, is a soda font used for adding soda/carbonated water to cordials or cocktails, It's just as much fun watching your videos a second time to check if I missed some goodies on the beaches Cheers Mate 👍👍👍😎💨🏴‍☠☕☕☮☮🌈☺☺

      Many people wouldn't know what a soda font is. It is also known as a seltzer bottle, often used in old "slapstick" comedies like the old Marx Bros routines where Harpo would squirt another actor with it. Seltzer bottles are rarely used anymore, but are still available. Good video.

    Love your video's man, & your dog Gris. By the way, I believe that metal cylinder you found, is an old school soda bottle that pubs had on the bar, so people can help themselves to soda water. The giveaway is the screw thread where the co2 bulb went, which had a cover over the bulb & when it was screwed tight it pierced the bulb & charged the cylinder with gas. The top was to fill it. As I'm a new subscriber, I got a few of your vlogs to check out. Stay safe dude. Regards.......Urban Geeze.

    • @obsessedbeachcomber
      @obsessedbeachcomber  8 місяців тому +1

      The bigger boat is too live on when on trips, small one is to go ashore, third one is my way home if the wet season comes early, no road access for around 4 to 5 months.
      Yes amber is used for jewellery, but I'm more interested in the scientific side meaning inclusion what's in side.

    The only coastline I am familiar with is the west coast of North America, California Oregon and Washington. One of the aspects of it that drove me away from it in the 80’s was all the damned people crowding all of it. I was conceived on a beach, I love the beach, but I really hate the people that ruin the tranquility of it, and all the corresponding rules that go with it. YOU my friend, have a wonderful quiet coastline all to yourself it appears. I am truly envious of your adventures. Peace.✌🏻
