Tsunami Debris

[alibaba.e]

Am concerned about hitting debris while sailing from Canada to Mexico. Are there any reports on how far off shore this stuff is floating.

The majority of it right now is still north of Hawaii,will be circulating towards west coast for some time.NOAA has a video 'Visualizations" on youtube,showing movement of concentrations of debris over next few years.

Thanks for posting Oz.Looks like next year is good for a northern passage.

I wonder if the military or coast guard are sinking any large debris?
