So, I had a chance to sit down with Ady Gil and talk a little bit about his boat and what happened.  If you’re not aware, the vessel Ady Gil was cut in half by a Japanese “research”  whaling ship.  I say “research” as it’s amazing what the Japanese do to get away with whale hunting- which is illegal.

The current claim is they are researching the affect of harpoon grenades on Whale blubber.  Of course, the only way to study that is to shoot the whale, kill it, and then bring it on board for “research”.

The reality show Whale Wars has been highlighting this.  If you want to see the videos of the actual ship being rammed, go to www.seashepherd.org, www.Ady.com, or YouTube “Ady Gil”.

The videos are really amazing.  If you want to donate to their cause for getting another ship, that is available as well.

I’ve posted the interview with Ady on Facebook.
