It is supposedly powerful enough to blind someone if shot directly in to their eye. I suspect all it really does is annoy the whalers.

what a douche bag, knob head, moron!

No wonder the boat was hit, this idiot would be dumb enough to park it in front of anything!

'Smoke the hemp in the floor...' What a goose! who let him drive this thing anway?

what a waste of cool looking boat!

"our plan is to wak board along side the Japanese . . ."

And do what??? :confused: . . . . . what a moron.

Great pics and story on your site. Very nice and thanks for sharing!

I have to wonder how many anti Japanese whaling advocates are driving Tacoma's and have Yamaha surround sound? I thought so. Put the bong down for 5 and think about the actions your taking here.

If you don't like what they do then advocate with your wallet. Beats the chit out of risking mens lives on the high seas.

I try to buy as little Japanese crap as possible and I would definitely not own some rice burning, built in soon to be closed Numi Fremont, pseudo 4x4 pile of crap. I'm afraid most of the "advocates" drive Prius's and buy all their furniture at Ikea. I have a hard time takeing the "cause" seriously.

Sorry, I do not eulogize, have compassion for, empathy for or otherwise feel sorry for any loss suffered by eco-TERRORISTS.

Ha Ha!!!! It's a eulogy for the boat!! Geez.......panties in a wad? :D :D

I think the guy eulogizing has nothing to do with the the Sea Shepard crew, I believe the boat was sold to them. You gotta agree that it's a cool boat.

I wouldnt eulogize the loss of my boat, I may actually celebrate

Here's an old article about the original - EarthRace - boat before they attempted to break the record.
