Something tells me there will be lots of betting going on at this meeting about the fate of the new Sea Shepherd Batboat.

Please let me know if you want on or off the Whale Wars ping list.

I hope it is hit aft of the forward watertight bulkhead and goes down with all hands. I have seen enough of the other Sea “Shepherd” Vessels hazarding the free and safe navigation of the seas. May they all go to a cold, watery grave.

Before anyone accuses me of not knowing of what I speak: I spent the first half of my life at sea. I am disgusted at the free world being held hostage by these terrorists at sea. Damn pirates, they are.

Let’s see, I was pretty accurate with last year’s prediction on the Earthracer’s fate. Wonder if I can go 2 for 2 on the new intercepter?

I predict that the intercepter will get disabled, probably north of the 60, by running into another ‘ecological nightmare.’ A drifting net or long line gets wrapped around the prop, with Sea Shepherd calling for emergency funds for repairs and alas, the repair time keeping the intercepter from actually engaging the fleet and wild accuations abour Japanese plots to disable the craft because they are so afraid of it.

Bold predictions, I know, but from what I’ve heard, they haven’t paid off the boat yet, and their normal donations are barely going to cover the opperating costs of the other two vessles and helecopter.
