Back in the 70s I was becalmed for 10 days in a small yacht on the southern end of the gyre. Lots of weed and fish, if it wasn’t for the sun it would have been fun. Everything used the weed for shade. I claim I saw a very large dragonfly, over 10 cm, no phone cameras back then.
we also spent two whole days drifting through salt pickled human turds every few meters as far as the eye could see, all around.
