Ocean Voyages Institute / Project Kaisei

Directions Website

Ocean Voyages Institute / Project Kaisei Project Kaisei is the ocean clean-up initiative of Ocean Voyages Institute, a non-profit organization based in San Francisco.

Ocean Voyages Institute is a non-profit established in 1979, focused on the preservation of maritime arts and sciences, the ocean environment and island culture. It was established to focus on major ocean clean-up and to raise awareness regarding the global problem of marine debris/ocean trash. Since its inception in 2009, Project Kaisei heralds the need for our ocean ecosystem to recover and takes action both on land and in the sea. To date, Ocean Voyages / Project Kaisei has:

Sailed S/V Kaisei, Project Kaisei’s flagship, on three scientific voyages to the North Pacific Gyre, 2009, 2011 & 2012
Participated in maritime education festivals in San Diego, California and Richmond City, British Columbia
Convened a Marine Debris Collection Equipment Think Tank
Made educational presentations all over the world
Received national and international recognition
Created a documentary for educational distribution (in final editing)
The vital connection between the health of our global ocean, the health of our planet and our own health is intertwined. It is imperative to stop the flow of marine litter and toxins into our oceans. It is of equal importance to begin significant clean-up efforts along all coast lines and in the Gyres. We must take responsibility, as part of the problem and part of the solution, in order to restore the ocean’s ecosystem and preserve our ocean for future generations. In 2013, Project Kaisei continues this focus.

Wednesday Yachting Luncheon

Hosted by Ron Young

Speaker: Mary Crowley, Founder, Ocean Voyagers Institute; Joe Farrell, Founder and Chairman, Resolve Marine.

The North Pacific Subtropical Gyre is a swirling 7.7 million square mile garbage patch - twice the size of Texas. The World’s Second Largest Marine Salvage Company, Resolve Marine, renown for global ocean cleanup projects including the Deepwater Horizon, has teamed-up with Ocean Voyages Institute, the pioneering non-profit, for a Gyre cleanup in the summer of 2024. Resolve earned a global reputation for restoring pristine aquatic environments after capsized oil tankers, collisions between massive toxic-waste barges, dangerous chemical explosions on burning cargo ships and other giant environmental tragedies in the most remote areas of our planet. Mary and Joe will review plans to deploy the 207’ Resolve Pioneer for a Pacific Gyre cleanup of historic scale.
