I found an interesting article on the web;

The Sargaboat, a solution to clean up the massive arrival of Sargassum

_ The Sargaboat collects sargassum at sea before it washes up on the beaches. Imagined by a Frenchman, this solution is now a reality, the first cleaning boats are in action in the Caribbean.

But a report released by the USF optical oceanography lab shows the quantity of sargassum actually decreased by 15% from April to May 2023. This marks the first time it has shrunk during this time of year since 2011 when studies of the seaweed first began.

'Surprise' drop in sargassum seaweed for first time in over a decade, satellite data shows

This summer was on track to be a record year for the massive piles of sargassum seaweed washing ashore on Florida's beaches. However, new data from the University of South Florida and NASA provide a surprisingly optimistic forecast for beaches with pungent seaweed.

Interesting, but the article doesn't say what the Sargaboat does with the sargassum once it's been collected.

"The world sees invasive seaweed. This gardener sees housing bricks."​
