We’re proud to announce a new partnership between Sail Seven Seas and EasiRecycling, supporting our upcoming global circumnavigation and a shared mission: delivering measurable environmental impact, open data, and a lasting legacy for future generations.

This is not a symbolic alignment. It is a working partnership built around science, systems, and accountability.

Purpose in motion

EasiRecycling’s mission—to drive real outcomes in recycling, circular economy thinking, and environmental responsibility—aligns directly with how we operate at sea.

Our circumnavigation is more than a voyage. It is a moving platform for:

  • Ocean plastic sampling in remote waters

  • Scientific iteration and field testing

  • Education, storytelling, and youth engagement

  • Transparent, verifiable impact metrics

Together, we’re connecting offshore exploration with practical, onshore outcomes.

What this partnership enables

Through EasiRecycling’s support, Sail Seven Seas will:

  • Conduct ocean plastic sampling across multiple ocean basins

  • Trial and refine a low-cost, scalable Ocean Plastic Sampling Kit, enabling broader global data collection

  • Feed real-world results back into scientific development and iteration

  • Share verified findings with stakeholders, communities, and educational partners

The goal is simple but ambitious: make meaningful ocean data easier to collect, share, and act upon.

How support is used

EasiRecycling’s investment directly builds mission capability, including:

  • Vessel readiness and durability for long-range operations

  • Dedicated onboard workspace for science and data handling

  • Operational logistics supporting sampling, reporting, and outreach

  • A global storytelling platform linking data to human impact

Every dollar is tied to function, performance, and outcome—not vague promises.

Beyond data: legacy and education

A core focus of this partnership is legacy.

Across ports and regions, we will:

  • Engage with schools and youth groups using live expedition data

  • Develop educational resources linked to real-world findings

  • Share a simple narrative:

What we do today echoes in the oceans of tomorrow.”

This ensures the impact extends beyond the voyage itself.

Looking ahead

As we prepare for the Sydney–Hobart, Exxpedition voyages, and the circumnavigation beyond, we’re excited to work alongside a partner who values:

  • Credible action over slogans

  • Systems over gestures

  • Long-term thinking over short-term exposure

We’re grateful to EasiRecycling for backing this vision.

Fair winds,

Matt Harvey & Jase Haigh
