00:00Nice to see you. Good. Yes, there's so many of you.

00:07The collection's building. How are you?

00:09Nice to see you again. Yeah, very nice to see you.

00:11Have you all just come in recently today?

00:14Yesterday.

00:15You'll be doing a little bit of catching up.

00:17Absolutely.

00:18I have to remember now which years you all are.

00:20That's the thing, when I see you all together now,

00:21because you're all growing, I've got to remember what years.

00:23Yeah, exactly.

00:24But Abelou, is it going well?

00:25Yeah, extremely well.

00:26I love last year, it's fantastic.

00:27It was a good time.

00:28The fishers say hi, they enjoyed our movement together.

00:30Yeah, that's brilliant.

00:31And yeah, the lobby's growing.

00:33We've got some good networks here.

00:35It's happening, so it's really good.

00:36Thanks for that.

00:37And Pierre, things good with you?

00:38Yeah, good.

00:39I keep an eye on what you're up to all the time.

00:40Christian seaweed everywhere we go.

00:41Good to see you.

00:42But we managed to set up the mechanism since the last one,

00:46very surprised, so that was very exciting,

00:48and we also managed to have Rich Airways that is supporting us.

00:51I was very emotional after watching it.

00:53Honestly, I got angry, then I got sad, then I got frustrated,

00:56then I got happy.

00:57I went through every single range of motion watching it.

00:59Oh, that was the point.

01:00You had this carousel, like, first excitement,

01:03then frustration, and then the guys.

01:06It was very nice to see you.

01:07Oh, exactly.

01:08Very nice to see you.

01:09Back in January.

01:10It was this year, wasn't it?

01:11Yeah, exactly.

01:12We had the children by the lake doing the squirting.

01:14Yeah, that actually worked out quite well.

01:16Yeah, it was brilliant.

01:18Good to see you.

01:20I've seen you for a while.

01:21I know.

01:22Yeah.

01:23Your corals are doing excellent, Grandpa.

01:25Yes.

01:26It's crucial to get you guys somewhere out here today

01:28talking a bit more as well about it all,

01:30because I think MPA is going to be a big part

01:32of what it's all about in a few days,

01:34and hearing how you guys can regulate it

01:36and manage it better than most is quite crucial.

01:39So you guys are a niche amongst a niche,

01:41which is quite good,

01:42so we need to get a few more of the ocean side going in.

01:45We're outsizing.

01:46We're outsizing.

01:47Yes, exactly.

01:48Well, that's it.

01:49The more you can work together as well,

01:50the greater your impact,

01:51which is fantastic.

01:52But tell me,

01:53what's been happening in Coastal Sea recently?

01:54Well, we grew super fast,

01:55which is really interesting.

01:56Seaweed farmers are doing an incredible job,

01:58and I think one of the things that Earthside

01:59has really helped us do

02:00is really put tropical red seaweeds

02:02and smaller holiday producers on the map.

02:04Right.

02:05Before they're kind of invisible,

02:06even though they're producing the most seaweeds.

02:08So that's been incredibly successful.

02:10where nature is fantastic.

02:11So you've got to be geared in a lot of instruments.

02:14How do we get into the Westside?

02:15Because that's an active part.

02:21That's really important.

02:22I think having your involvement and your interest

02:25just means a lot

02:26because you know the space really well,

02:27you know the youth background coming through,

02:29and you can give them those examples

02:30of where you think this is working really well,

02:32be brave here,

02:33don't give up here,

02:34because that's really important.

02:35I think mentoring, Dan,

02:37when you're just starting out into the space

02:38has got to be quite a daunting process.

02:41So it's really good for you all there,

02:42kind of reassuring.

02:43So don't underestimate your own role,

02:45because we need people like you.

02:46You know, it's a big team in the environments.

02:48Everyone's got to pay their part as a jigsaw

02:50to make it work.

02:51Yeah, good.

02:52Well, nothing well done.

02:53Love to see you.

02:54See you well done.

02:55Bye.

02:58I've watched your clip several times,

03:00and I think you should be in Hollywood.

03:04and you think you're going to be in Hollywood.

03:08but he's doing his work.
