At one time I wanted to join the Sea Shepherd Society. I can accept the risk but after watching a rag tag crew with no experience or training I'm kinda glad I decided to go back to school and get my degree instead. I admire them greatly but at some point you would think they have better organizational and basic seamanship skills. The First mate clearly had no idea what he was doing. I could care less how long he has been at Paul Watson's side. His inability to lead effectively and perform his deck task was a complete joke. If I were on the zodiac I would have rung his neck after getting back on board. His staring at the chart trying to make sense of time and speed to get distance made me laugh...at him. Caring is one thing. Getting someone killed over relaxed standards of training is just the dumbest thing I have heard of. SSCS needs to train in port every chance they get. As it stands they are the Barney Fife's of the high seas.
