Abstract: A method for removing seaweed from a beach. A first step involves providing a primary vessel with a seaweed collection area and a vacuum source. A second step involves anchoring the primary vessel offshore. A third step involves connecting one end of a vacuum hose to the vacuum source and extending a remote end of the vacuum hose to the beach. A fourth step involves controlling the positioning of the remote end of the vacuum hose along the beach with a secondary vessel that is small in relation to the primary vessel. A fifth step involves activating the vacuum and feeding seaweed into the remote end of the vacuum hose. The seaweed is drawn by the vacuum source through the vacuum hose to the seaweed collection area on the primary vessel.
