Smashed anti-whaling superboat sinks in Antarctic: activists

(AFP) – 3 hours ago

SYDNEY — A high-tech anti-whaling powerboat that was badly damaged in a
collision with Japanese fishermen sank overnight after salvage attempts
failed, activists said on Friday.

The super-fast "Ady Gil" trimaran, which had its front end sheared off
in the smash, was being taken to an Antarctic port when the tow line
snapped, Peter Hammarstedt, first officer of the "Bob Barker" ship, told
AFP.

"The Ady Gil was taking on too much water, it became too heavy on the
tow. More and more of the vessel was under water," he said.

"It was determined it would be only two to three hours before it was
fully submerged. At this point unfortunately the Ady Gil is on the
bottom of the Southern Ocean."

The Bob Barker, which was towing the Ady Gil, has now rejoined the hunt
for Japanese whalers along with the "Steve Irwin", another protest ship
operated by the Hollywood-backed Sea Shepherd group.

The Ady Gil, a sleek, carbon-and-kevlar trimaran, was capable of speeds
up to 50 knots (57 miles/93 kilometres per hour) and claimed the
round-the-world record in 2008 under its former name, "Earthrace".

Damned environmental pussies, they had it coming.


So you approve of the Asians fishing out the oceans for pure profit?
It figures. They drag the bottom, and take everything when net
fishing. The Japs dont give a **** about anything.They eat
anything......
I guess your mentality would be " I'm old, so I wont have to worry
about ****ing up the worlds Oceans, cause I'm not going to live that
much longer"

Whats's left for the future Generations?

Damned environmental pussies, they had it coming.

I never figured you for that much of an asshole.


That's 'cause you responded to Harry, who *does* fit the bill.


I admit, I have my nose stuck way up harry's ass.

Mebbe YOU would change your mind if someone rammed your boat because
you were fishing.
There are plenty of PETA folks who think that is cruel to the fish,
deplete the seas and whatever



From what I heard, the Whale Wars boat boat was not moving. It was rammed.
Are you really trying to defend the Japanese whaling industry??

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100106/...rctica_whaling

Even if the WW boat was still moving isn't it at a minimum _both_ boats'
fault? That's how I read the laws involved.
