I am happy to announce that the Sea Shepherd crew have finally managed to successfully escort the majority of the Japanese whaling fleet out of the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary!
While there has not been any further sighting of the Yushin Maru 3 since the collision last week, Sea Shepherd managed to get the other 4 remaining Japanese ships–Nisshin Maru, Shonan Maru No. 2, Yushin Maru 1, Yushin Maru 2–north of the 60 degrees line and continue to head on a north by northwest direction.
Bob Barker captain, Chuck Swift, stated:
“We intend to keep on their tail and to prevent any whaling operations for as long as our fuel reserves last and that should be for another few weeks, at least.”
