“I have a crew of 88 very happy people...”
Notice the wording, the SeaHippies dis not call them sailors or activists, just people. From past seasons they are not sailors who have any clue what do at sea. We also know that not all of the are full-blown activists, many seemed to be it for the cruise.
88 crew on that TOY? I often went on six month jobs on bigger ships working 24/7 with 8 crew.
I wonder if there were any officers on board, as there does not seem to be any of them that understand the law.
