The golf balls that take care of the sealife.
Golf is one of those precision sports that require ample spaces and plenty of practice. Aside from the many golf courses located near the coast, practicing one’s swing is also a popular pastime for guests on a yacht . It is estimated that about 300 million golf balls are lost each year , with an enormous percentage ending up in the sea . What most people don’t realise, however, is that their core is composed of zinc oxide and zinc acrylate, elements that are considered highly toxic in aqueous environments. As ocean lovers, we find this unacceptable .
Being this significant numbers, it’s worth reflecting on our responsibility about the impact generated by practitioners of this popular sport. Perhaps it would be a good idea to make golfers and golf courses responsible for investing part of their resources in recovering some these golf balls that end at the bottom of our lakes, rivers, and oceans?
It’s also important to consider what measures we can take to prevent this . The answer is always the same, to stay informed about sustainable alternatives and avoid bad practice . At Evolution Yacht Agents we have discovered the Ecobioballs , and we think that everyone should know about this option too! This innovative ball, created for golf lovers by Barcelona and Miami-based Albus Golf , has a special structure which immediately starts to biodegradate once submerged in water . In less than 24 hours its external coating begins to open, and between 36 and 48 hours, the core , which is made up of 100% fish food , is released into the water. A sensational alternative, which does not pollute our oceans, and feeds fishes.
We recommend you to contact us and order a bunch of these ocean-friendly golf balls so that you can offer your clients, guests, and friends conscious alternatives to enjoy these activities onboard your yacht . Introducing this product is an effective way to underline your commitment to the environment . Guests can enjoy practicing their full swing in the open air, and not in the enclosed practice rooms which are offered on some vessels. Another advantage, there is no need for the crew to chase after lost golf-balls . With customers in more than 50 countries, including hotels, event organisers, and of course many environmentally conscious superyachts around the world, perhaps it’s time for you to join the Ecobio golfing revolution ?
