Salamander - Sargasso Seaweed

One of the key features of the ocean for the last few days is the presence of large swathes of Sargasso Seaweed. Floating in great masses, wind strewn across the Atlantic.


I wasn't expecting to see anything like this and it's quite a strange sight! The seas at the moment are relatively calm, without the huge swell I was expecting to see & feel.


The seaweed is in sufficiently large masses to potentially cause a problem if it was to get caught around part of the boat! I don't fancy dragging a great field of Sargasso for the rest of the trip!
