Save our seas bottle project

Welcome to the 'S.O.S Bottle Project', a collaboration between Yachting Pages Media Group, Blue Marine Foundation (BLUE) and Octo Marine. It is great to have you on board as we come together to ‘Save Our Seas’.

Our new initiative seeks to unite the superyacht industry in a bid to help reduce the amount of single use plastic bottles entering our oceans, and ultimately help prevent further damage from being inflicted on our fragile marine eco-systems.

Where will the S.O.S Bottle Project be this season?

In order to reduce our carbon footprint on the environment, additional bottles requested will be grouped into delivery runs and delivered during scheduled Yachting Pages Delivers trips in France (French Riviera), Italy (San Remo – Livorno), Spain (Port Roses – Cartagena) and Palma de Mallorca (all major ports).

Terms and Conditions

Bottles are subject to availability and while stocks last.

Additional bottles requested will only be delivered on Yachting Pages Delivers routes and listed boat shows.

There may be delays in bottles reaching you due to grouping requests and deliveries together; so as to limit our environmental impact. This means we are not able to ship/courier bottles directly to donators.

There is no additional charge for S.O.S bottles – we just ask that you kindly make a donation to Blue Marine Foundation to help combat the crisis in our oceans.

Thank you for supporting 'S.O.S Bottle Project', follow the movement on Facebook, Instagram,Twitter and LinkedIn using #SOSBOTTLE.
