About
the Reefs
 At
this time, the reef we will use is the Florida Special
made and deployed by David Walters
a local
reef builder.
These reefs
are over 10 feet tall with 12 foot triangular base. Heavy
steel (3/4 to 1 inch) panels fitted to the sides with
holes and 800 square feet of surface area and a weight of
over 5,000 lbs., tetrahedron concrete frame is one of the
strongest structures known and is tested to withstand a 50
year storm. Designed with a large footprint to prevent
sinking or subsiding, it�s expected to last 50 to 2000
years (depending on which engineer you ask). This
structure will produce approximately 500 lbs. of Pensacola
Red Snapper per year.
Financial Details
The Bank of Pensacola is where the account is set up
and both Paul Redman President of the Pensacola Charter
Boat Association and Chris Couture a representative for
the recreational fisherman have to sign to withdraw any
money from the account.
How do I donate:
Simply walk-in or drive up to any Bank
of Pensacola and simply say I would to make
a donation in to the REBUILD UNDERWATER NW FLORIDA
account for any denomination.
Other Donations: We also would like any structural
materials, clean steel 1/8' or larger, weighing in excess
of 150lbs, and or concrete structures: example culvert
pipe. Also any barges or steel boats would make a great
habitat for reef fish.
