Interesting that they state that the machine is one of only two in the Caribbean.

Similar to what is used where we cottage - Port Stanley, Canadian side of Lake Erie. Very effective in groomng the beach without being destructive.

Note - the collected refuse, seaweed or otherwise still has to go somewhere. When the holding bin at the back end is full it has to get dumped somewhere and dealt with. Depending on the amount of seaweed, it may fill several times in one morning's grooming. Butts, cups, refuse is one thing, seaweed is another issue when dumped after collection
However have to believe if they are spending for the machine they will have a plan to dispose of what is collected
Has to be a positive for the beach

There's nothing quite like heavy machinery and smooth jazz. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Groovin.gif" alt="" />
