  • Clearwater Marine Aquarium Sinking Dolphin Tale Prop to Benefit Marine Life House Boat, Home to Harry Connick Jr.’S Character, to Become Artificial Reef
    Clearwater Marine Aquarium Sinking Dolphin Tale Prop to Benefit Marine Life House boat, home to Harry Connick Jr.’s character, to become artificial reef Clearwater, FL (April 25, 2019) – A part of Clearwater Marine Aquarium’s iconic house boat, home to Harry Connick Jr’s character in the movie Dolphin Tale and its sequel, will be transformed into a marine life habitat in the Gulf of Mexico. On Wed., April 24, the barge of the movie prop was professionally placed 10 miles off Clearwater Beach as part of Pinellas County’s Rube Allyn Reef. CMA partnered with Pinellas County to contribute to its artificial reef system. For the past 8 years, guests visiting CMA could see the house boat docked outside of the aquarium. Alcon Entertainment built the house boat for Dolphin Tale in 2010, and it was also used in Dolphin Tale 2. Recently the prop was dismantled to be rebuilt and renovated into a permanent house boat that will be placed at the aquarium. The barge of the boat prop was identified as an ideal structure to support an artificial reef. “When filming the Dolphin Tale movies, we never expected one of the props would become an artificial reef,” says David Yates, CEO of CMA. “We are happy and honored marine life will benefit from it.” Artificial reefs provide valuable underwater habitats for marine life and are constructed from environmentally safe construction and demolition waste. Items such as concrete pipes, steel beams or entire ships are carefully placed on the ocean bottom. Within about two weeks, algae and barnacles attach to the reef material.

    INDY ELEVEN POST-GAME QUOTE SHEET TAMPA BAY ROWDIES 1 : 1 INDY ELEVEN SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2019 AL LANG STADIUM – ST. PETERSBURG, FL INDY ELEVEN HEAD COACH MARTIN RENNIE On the importance of tonight’s result … “I think it was a good result and an important point from a difficult game on the road, putting us in a good position going into Wednesday. It means that the top four is within our own hands, giving us a chance to get us a home playoff game provided we do well in the finale this week, so it was a good result overall.” On the play that led to Tampa Bay’s first half goal … “I think that was a big moment. Five minutes of stoppage time was too much for one injury, and it was really a harsh, harsh call on the penalty. We were really looking to be in a solid position going into the half at nil-nil, and we knew we could bring on players like [Tyler] Pasher, [Matt] Watson and others in the second half to give us a chance to get going. In the end we still managed to do that, but that meant it ended up in a tie rather than the win we were looking for.” On the team’s defensive display on the road … “I think we show a lot of effort and a lot of character. Sometimes on the road we’ve been a little too open and too expansive, but tonight we were more solid and stayed in the game and that allowed us to fight back.
