Long story short. Fast hippie boat caught up with the factory ship and slowed it down long enough for the Bob Barker to get on its tail.

The Steve Irwin was at port resupplying and left today so I am assuming we will see the Steve Irwin meet up with the Bob Barker and Gojira to resupply both vessels and basically chase the whalers.

It does sound like the Gojira almost went the way of the Ady Gil missing getting nailed by 20 meters.

Whale Wars Ping!

If you would like to be added to this ping list please message Pan_Yan or Dengar01.

We ping the list when there is "breaking news" regarding the whalers vs the hippies. And then pan_yan creates a thread for each new episode of Whale Wars which runs in the summer.

At some point there are going to be some dead hippies, you just can’t play games like this at sea.

[No sympathy for those who kill whales.]

Nor for those who eat cows.

That fat bastard running Sea Shepherd is going to get some of his hippie followers killed if he keeps this up. I hope it doesn’t happen, but if it does, I really hope their families sue Sea Shepherd for everything they’ve got and put it out of business.

Yeah, well from what I can tell there will be no more whales killed for atleast 2 months because the Steve Irwin just left port today with enough fuel, food and water to fuel the fleet for the next 2 months. So I don't think the Japanese will meet there quota again and I think this may be Sea Shepherd's most successful year. We shall see.

As a Mariner. I am amazed the Coast Guard has not yanked the Captains License. Although I am against whaling and killing Dolphins.

I own the DVDs and enjoy the show and am absolutely AMAZED no one has been killed, Watson is reckless. Don't get me wrong I am anti-whaling and especially anti-dolphin slaughter that occurs in Taji, Japan. But Watson does not care about the lives of his crew.

The Irwin flies under the Dutch flag and the harpoon interceptor flies under either the Aussie flag or New Zealand flag (can't remember off the top of my head).

And Australia claims the waters that the Japanese hunt whales. Technically they are in international waters so really there is no authority. Sea Shepherd believes they are the coast guard.

“Nor for those who eat cows.”

Nor for those who harvest bell peppers.

I wish the Japanese would sink these hippies and machine-gun the survivors in the water. I hate hippies and I hate these idiots even more.

Why are whales “so special”. No one has EVER given me a decent answer to that. We eat cows that Hindis worship, so does that make us evil.

"No sympathy for those who kill whales."

Whales have a purpose...

...mainly as a food source to those higher on the food chain such as predator type mammals...

Watson doesn not care about the lives of the ships’ crew that are rammed by his band of hippies. And it’s not just whaling ships he “harasses”, it is other fishing vessels as well. One of these days Watson is going to pick on a Russian fishing vessel. Then the “whaling ship” Ivan Rogov will be out hunting for the Great White Whale Paul Watson.
