  1. I just discovered that Null Island, aka PIRATA Station 13010, aka Soul buoy, was decommissioned in 2021 and no longer exists.

    I know this is irrational, but I've always found real comfort in the thought that, regardless of what was going in life, there was a small buoy silently floating at geo:0,0 half way around the globe.

    I hope someone replaces it. Null Island. should exist.

  6. A #humpback #whale remains #trapped in a #tangle of rope, dragging a #buoy behind it, after urgent rescue efforts failed to set it free when it was first sighted just south of #SydneyHarbour on #Sunday.

    The adult whale is heading south, opposite the usual migratory path for this time of year, which is peak whale #migration season. #auspol #entangled

  7. Seagull’s Perch on Wallis Buoy

    Ah, the majestic Wallis buoy. It’s a beacon of maritime sophistication and seagull real estate. On my way to Sherkin Island, I came upon this floating masterpiece, complete with a solar panel that probably powers the seagull’s Netflix subscription. The bird, perched confidently atop its throne, seemed to be enforcing the 6 km speed limit with all the authority of a traffic warden who’s had one too many cups of tea.
