The International SeaKeepers Society has created a Founders Tribute Page to commemorate the accomplishments of the DISCOVERY Yacht Fleet & Program Partners in 2020.

The Annual Founders event is usually held during the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, where the winners of The SeaKeeper of the Year, Nextgen Awardee and the DISCOVERY Yacht Fleet are given their due. However, due to Covid-19, the event has been moved online this year for the health and safety of all involved. 

The page went live on the 26th of October 2020 and highlights the vessels from the DISCOVERY yacht Fleet along with program participants, supporters and media partners. In addition, the 2020 SeaKeeper Artist of the Year Kelly Quinn also has a gallery with prints and other items available to purchase, with proceeds benefitting the SeaKeepers Fuel Fund.

This year, SeaKeepers completed 13 expeditions and 11 clean-ups due to the continued efforts of partners and the community. A series of video presentations will be available on the SeaKeepers tribute page from the 29th of October that will provide insight into the DISCOVERY vessels, featured scientists and programming. Lesson plans are available to accompany the videos.
