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. |

Now if I remember my boating correctly, the capitain of the smaller boat should be charged with endangerment and failing to yeild. Green nuts. I wonder if they had their boat insured? Hope not. |

JR 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. -- Nom=de=Plume This vid looks to me like it was moving right along the side of the Japanese fisherman then decided to cut across the bow and got clipped: http://news.yahoo.com/video/world-15749633/17481983 A couple of things... First, this vid is from the Japanese perspective, so it can't be considered definitive. Second, the WW mother ship probably has contradictory vid that we haven't seen - I read they have five camera angles. Third, both sides are obligated to avoid a collision, and since the Japanese and the WW boat could take action to do that, both should be at fault. -- Nom=de=Plume What a dip. Have you ever heard of 'maneuverability'? Your knowledge of maritime law is eclipsed only by... Yes, but there's no indication that the Japanese boat even tried. It's not like it was heavy fog or they didn't know the other boat was around. Can't think of anything. Pretty much sums up your "thinking." What 'signs' are you looking for? Do you expect a ship that big to show 'signs' in about 4 seconds? I knew I had you filtered for a reason. -- John H "My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government." Thomas Jefferson Four seconds??? Where did that number come from? The WW boat has been around the Japanese fleet for weeks/months. Please, please filter me! You're just too odd. Four seconds was about the reaction time the whaler had when the little boat turned into his path. Dense? I guess so. BS.. they had weeks to figure out how to avoid the other boats. Dense, you betcha you are. -- Nom=de=Plume |
