Another Sea Shepherd Vessel to smash up? :)

[territt]

If I remember correctly it's the duty of the smaller ships to get out of the way of the larger ones...so the Ady Gil should not have been getting so close to the whaling ship. They may not have powered in front of them buy they certainly were moving forwards and could easily see what would happen.

" ADY GIL was clearly the stand on, or right of way vessel in this situation. The SHONIN MARU II was clearly the give way or burdened vessel. This was due to the COLREGS concerning vessel approach, the ADY GIL being on the starbord side of the SHONIN MARU II, and the overtaking or passing of the ADY GIL, apparently on her port quarter by the SHONIN MARU II."

Interesting, cause on the video it looked like sea Shepard drove it into the path of a boat they knew could not turn or stop in time.

If you'v watched whale wars, youd have seen that the engines of the Ady Gil where turned off because they had low fuel and was waiting for the Steve Irwin to catch-up and re-fuel them. So they didnt drive into the path of shonan maru at all
