Day 37 Toxic waste?

A container was sighted 800m east of Coconut Bay this morning (just inside Guinjata Bay). Labels on the barrel indicate that it contains hazardous substances. Local spear fishermen swam out to it this morning but had to turn back after their eyes began to sting. Everyone is on watch and it must be reported to the authorities as soon as it is located again!
Still had a lovely dive at Manta Reef this morning but we all kept an eye out. Hopefully it is found and recovered safely and before any serious damage can take place.
