The experimental catamaran, made from reclaimed plastic bottles, recycled aluminum irrigation pipe and held together with organic glue made from cashew nut husks and sugarcane, took 128 days to cross the world's largest ocean to highlight the dangers of plastic pollution, over-fishing and climate change to the oceans.
