I just thought it might be quite useful for any American SS fans to know that Sea Shepherd is currently in New York & New Jersey offering shipboard tours and gifts etc! Can you imagine if you lived in NYK and missed out on it?!
Please post any photos here if you have any
P.S. this is not a topic to start talking about the AI whaling ships in extremes, which you think is better, greenpeace or sea shepherd. Its not a whaling topic full stop!
(Ive seen bad things happen before!)
But anyway here is the info
Sea Shepherd’s Steve Irwin Coming to New Jersey and New York
Sea Shepherd’s flag ship, the Steve Irwin, is making a brief stop in the United States before continuing on to the Mediterranean to commence with the upcoming campaign to defend critically endangered bluefin tuna populations.
Please come meet the crew of the Steve Irwin, donate, take a tour of the ship, and show your support for Sea Shepherd’s numerous ocean defense campaigns! This is a unique opportunity and the vessel’s first visit to the U.S. since joining the fleet of Neptune’s Navy.
Ship tours will run daily from 10 AM- 3 PM. Merchandise will be available.
Additionally, Sea Shepherd is hosting a fundraising event on April 30th with Captain Paul Watson. Please click here for more information.
To find out how you can help while the ship is in port, please contact: NYC@seashepherd.org
