Come and JOIN the ADVENTURES - https://thejunk.com/liveaboard-schedules/ Plankton are an incredibly diverse group of organisms that inhabit the world's oceans, lakes, and rivers. They are classified into two main categories: phytoplankton, which are microscopic plants, and zooplankton, which are tiny animals. Characteristics of Plankton Drifting Nature: Plankton are primarily characterized by their inability to swim against currents. Instead, they drift with the water flow, which means their distribution is largely influenced by oceanic and atmospheric currents. This drifting lifestyle allows them to occupy various ecological niches in both freshwater and marine environments. Size and Diversity: Plankton vary dramatically in size, ranging from tiny bacteria (nanoplankton) to larger organisms like jellyfish (macroplankton). This diversity also extends to their biological classifications, including single-celled organisms like diatoms and dinoflagellates among phytoplankton, and small crustaceans such as copepods among zooplankton. Ecological Importance: Plankton play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems. Phytoplankton are primary producers, converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis and forming the base of the food web. Zooplankton feed on phytoplankton and serve as a food source for larger marine animals, including fish and whales.

ORC 57 from @marsaudoncomposites2326 ▫️ Grand Large Yachting, owner of the Outremer and Gunboat brands bought the Marsaudon Composites shipyard in September 2023. ▫️ That's good news if you are a performance multihull fan as this manufacturer, based in Lorient in Brittany France, had some financial challenges this year. ▫️ What are your thoughts? 👇 ▫️ As we reported from Cannes, Grand Large Yachting now owns the assets, the teams and the ORC brand. ▫️ The Marsaudon Lorient submarine base will also be building the Outremer 45 to free up capacity in La Grande Motte for the group. ▫️ What next for ORC? Probably a relaunch of the ORC range: the 42, 50 and 57. ▫️ What would you like to see them do with this brand? 👇 ▫️ Their ORC 57 catamaran builds on the style and design philosophy of the other models with fluid lines, and a muscular, sporty structure for long cruises and high-performance navigation. ▫️ The ORC57 comes with 4 large twin cabins, accommodating 9 people. A large bathroom and shower, both with sliding doors, in each hull and plenty of storage space. ▫️ #sailing #yachtingnews #speed #fast #performance #katamarans
