Anti-Poaching Vessels

Sea Shepherd's Mighty 'Ocean Warrior' Will Prevent Illegal Fishing

— July 29, 2016 — Autos
The non-profit marine conservation organization Sea Shepherd recently deployed its new anti-poaching boat, 'Ocean Warrior,' into the Antalya Harbour in Turkey, with Captain Alex Cornelissen saying: "Poachers beware; here she comes."

The custom-built 175-foot vessel is designed to crack down on illegal fishing, be tough enough to endure the harsh conditions of the cold Antarctic waters and launch both boats and helicopters as needed. Although the Ocean Warrior is large and slow-moving, it's actually now the fastest boat in Sea Shepherd's fleet.

In the past, Sea Shepherd has targeted Japanese fishing fleets that take and kill whales from the Antarctic Ocean, despite these actions being outlawed by the International Court of Justice. Sea Shepherd's Ocean Warrior will equip the organization to intervene during operations like this one in order to protect whales and other creatures of the sea.
Trend Themes
1. Anti-poaching Technology - There is a growing demand for innovative technologies aimed at addressing illegal fishing and wildlife poaching.
2. Environmental Conservation - Sustainability and environmental protection are becoming a top priority for consumers and businesses alike.
3. Marine Patrol and Monitoring - There is a need for increased patrols and monitoring of coastal waters and oceans to prevent illegal activities and protect marine life.
Industry Implications
1. Marine Technology - Both public and private sectors are expected to increase investment in developing advanced marine technologies for environmental conservation and anti-poaching efforts.
2. Tourism and Hospitality - The anti-poaching effort presents an opportunity for tourism and hospitality businesses to partner with conservation organizations to promote eco-tourism and sustainable marine practices.
3. Security and Surveillance - There is a growing demand for sophisticated surveillance and security technologies to detect and deter illegal activities in marine environments.
