This fishing trawler had been landlocked for several days thanks to a low tide... People in KrooBay work in and around scavenging for anything to sell or use in the neighbourhood. Reclaimed land in this area is mainly from refuge that floats down the "river" during the rainy season. Yes, in Western terms, this is an environmental disaster... but when survival, food, shelter and clean water are a priority worrying about what floats into the ocean is less of an issue.
