Tidal rotating oyster shaper and cleaner apparatus and method of use

A tidal rotating oyster shaper and cleaning apparatus configured to rotate by a source of passive energy, said apparatus comprising:

• an outer frame;
• a containment cage supported by the outer frame, said containment cage having two lateral ends;
• at least one container configured to hold oysters, said at least one container located and maintained within the containment cage;
• a circular end member mounted on each lateral end of the containment cage, said end members each having outwardly extending teeth which circumscribe the end members;
• at least one passive energy capturing pawl configured to contact and engage the teeth which circumscribe the end members on the lateral ends of the containment cage;
• whereby upon the introduction of a source of passive energy to the apparatus, the pawl is caused to rotate in a first direction, thereby rotating the end members, the containment cage, and said at least one container within the containment cage.
