Down Winding on the High Seas... Imagine down winding with whales in the Southern Ocean, with about 5 metres of swell, 20 knots, and some support vessels...
Fast forward to 1:29 for some action... But I encourage you to watch the entire video. First half gives a background on Captain Paul Watson's early days, and the second half gets into what's been happening over the last 8 years or so.
Great vid. That footage with the FM and the NM is jaw dropping. I do think a bit of video license was used with angle's to make it look worse but that is a big ship to go up against in those conditions.
Huge respect.
SSCS are not for everyone i understand that. Paul Watson and his crew have some big adversaries in the media and the full story just is always a little blurry but what a amazing man and team.
An announcement only a few weeks ago adding a fourth ship to the fleet. Huge thumbs up![]()
That was great.. Long.. But still great and worth watching.. Glad they showed the ramming of their new boat right at the end.. Unbelievable.
