Updates for the report, Crossing the Pacific
You can find my report about crossing the Pacific last spring at:
http://mobilebroadcastnews.com/MBN/blog/Crossing-Pacific
Updates to the report:
Captain Bethune was given a two year suspended sentence and has
returned to New Zealand.
Japanese authorities have refused to cooperate in investigations and
declined requests by Australian and New Zealand maritime authorities to
question Captain Komura of the Japanese ship which rammed and sank the
Ady Gil, endangering the lives of Captain Bethune and five crew
members. See:

Crossing the Pacific
This past March and April I had the opportunity to cross the Pacific Ocean on one of the Sea Shepherd ships, the Steve Irwin. We covered over 10,000 nautical miles, passing through the Panama Canal and on up to New York City. The ship had recently wrapped up its sixth anti Japanese whaling campaign in the Antarctic and was headed to the Mediterranean to defend Bluefin tuna.
I met up with the Steve Irwin in Hobart, Tasmania where I found the crew to be in high spirits after a grueling three month long campaign confronting the Japanese in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. They had successfully prevented the whaling fleet from killing over half of their self-set quota of whales. Despite an international ban on whaling, the Japanese had permitted themselves the killing of 1,035 whales this season for what they claim to be “scientific research” (although the whale meat ends up in restaurants).
