<div>*** On July 21, Captain Paul Watson was ambushed and arrested in Nuuk, Greenland by the Danish Police based on a new red notice issued by Japan. If extradited to Japan, he faces life in prison. Please visit <a href="https://www.freepaulwatson.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.freepaulwatson.org</a> to find out how you can help! ***
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>I need your help to hunt down the most vicious monster on the sea.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As I write this, I am onboard the John Paul DeJoria in the North Atlantic enroute toward the Northwest Passage.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We need to cross the Arctic Ocean to reach this destructive monster in the Pacific.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are in search of a massive murdering fiend called the Kangei Maru, the recently launched whale processing factory ship that has replaced the previous cruel colossus that we fought for a decade in the Southern Ocean, the notoriously cruel Nisshin Maru.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This loathsome slaughter machine is on a cetacean serial killing spree in the North Pacific. The recently launched Kangei Maru is the only whale processing factory ship on the planet and the largest one ever built.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Kangei Maru, which is 112.6 meters long, 21 meters wide and has a gross tonnage of 9,299 tons is 1,154 gross tons larger than the Nisshin Maru, the ship we clashed with every year between 2005 and 2015.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>During ten years of confrontations, we saved 6,500 whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary and cost the Japanese whaling industry tens of millions of dollars in lost profits. During the 2012/2013 season the Japanese whalers took less than 10% of their kill quota because of our interventions.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We stopped the Nisshin Maru, we can now stop the Kangei Maru.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With Japan’s withdrawal from the Southern Ocean, I was almost ready to retire after fifty years of leading anti-whaling campaigns. Sadly, the launching of the Kangei Maru has forced me to return to the fight on the high seas.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We must stop this massive killing machine before it can return to the Southern Ocean to once again massacre the great whales.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It will not be an easy task, made extremely difficult by the hostile takeover of Sea Shepherd, the seizing of our ships and assets and the rebranding of the movement I created into an impotent mainstream non-confrontational organization no longer willing to tackle whaling operations.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But thanks to the support of my long-time friend and supporter John Paul DeJoria we have two sturdy ships, the John Paul DeJoria and the Bandero plus the loyalty of many veteran crewmembers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We secured the former Japanese Fisheries patrol ship Bandero earlier this year, secretly buying it directly from Japan and delivering it to Australia to guard the approach to the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now that Iceland will not be killing whales this summer, the John Paul DeJoria has been free to move to the North Pacific and the shortest and least costly route is the Northwest Passage.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No conservation or environmental ship has ever before transited this route from the North Atlantic to the Pacific over the top of Canada. This will be a first and it will give us the opportunity to test the Arctic for microplastics along the way.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This voyage will allow us to drop down into the Bering Sea and into the North Pacific where we can begin the hunt for the Kangei Maru. We must be ready to engage the Japanese whalers in the North Pacific, the Southern Ocean or even off the coast of Japan.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When we get through to Northwest Passage to the other side we will need to refuel and <strong>this is where we need your help to continue on in pursuit of the whale killing Kangei Maru.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Your tax deductible donation will enable us to intervene, to block and to stop the murder of so many whales.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
