This washed up on the east side just north of El Castillo. Any idea what it was. Its large at least 30 to 40 feet in diameter.

Interesting, perhaps it was blown away in a storm?

A long gill net nicknamed "The Ghost Net" that was loaded with dead sharks and fish was recently found floating near Grand Cayman and it has been removed from the water for proper disposal. It was suggested that illegal fishermen may have cut it and run to escape capture - but we will probably never know for sure:

Maybe from Cuba?
 
Ocean fish farms off Cozumel? Interesting... Anyone know where these are and what they are farming?

According to the UN article in the link, lobster, grouper, cod, and snapper. I seriously doubt anyone wants to say where.
