It's not clear who's fault it was, but I think it was the Japanese boat
captain's fault.

The only way that it was the Japanese ships fault was because he drew the
attention of the extremists greenpeace boat. Kind of like saying she
deserved
to be raped because of what she was wearing.


GP is fairly extreme, but it looked like the GP boat was on starboard, so it
would be up to the whaler to give way initially, and I looks like the GP
boat did attempt to back full astern when the capt realized that the whaler
was not giving way. Of course, I'm making the assumption, which could be
wrong, that the GP capt was telling the truth about the whaler and his own
actions.



The GP boat positioned itself intentionlly to be to starboard to force
another vessel off course and you think this is not only acceptable, but
brave and admirable? So if you where out sailing and I kept forcing you from
a strbd position this would be okay for you?
I am not immpressed Mr. Ganz. You may not massage my prostate. In fact you
may not even rub cream on my cracked feet. Your license is officially revoked
