New-800-Gallon-Sea-Turtle-Tank

The tank is a donation from the Georgia Sea Turtle Center and was delivered to the Tybee Island Marine Science Center by Mark Dodd, sea turtle researcher and biologist with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.

Weighing around 500 pounds, the tank required a specially built cart and an assembly of the strongest guys on the island to get the tank off the truck, on the cart, and into the science center.

Strong guys, left to right are Jason DuBoque, Todd Smith, Chris Williamson, Mark Dodd, Michael Partridge, and Joel Rodriguez.
