He gets to be a modern Robin Hood of the sea. Sort of.

check seashepherd.org

basically, it's an ocean campaign to fight poachers: japanese & norwegian whaling campaigns, the canadian seal hunt, long-line trapping and fishing around the mediterranean, etc. they take their ship, the steve irwin, and go interfere with poachers, in order to protect lives in the ocean.

where are they picking you up? do you have to pay to get to wherever they are?

these are questions i had when i was considering doing it a couple months ago.

[ryansmithxvx]

you have to get to wherever the ship is at when you plan on starting. if you want to start when it's in melbourne, you have to get to melbourne. if you want to start when it's in NZ, you have to get to NZ, etc. and you are responsible for your own transportation to/from.

That's what I figured.
