After searching for suspended mussel seed all over the oyster growers gear in Katama Bay, Jack comes up with a brilliant solution: lifting his raft at the boat lift in Edgartown long enough for our crew to scrape, gather and bag the thousands of mussel seed that were growing under it.

It took nearly 3 hours but the job got done with the help of the Edgatown Shellfish Department.
