Sea Shepherd crew member abandon’s ship
Elora Malama West one time Cove Guardian and recently part
of Sea Shepherd’s floating circus Operation Zero Tolerance. Ms. West aboard one of the circus’s
rust-bucket garbage scows developed sea sickness.
After two weeks at sea sailing towards the Southern Ocean to
illegally harass the Japanese mariners, Mr. West had to abandon ship. During the two weeks she developed sea
sickness (motion sickness), making the journey difficult.
Ms. West left the vessel then wrote an explanation on her
blog, please see link below.
NOTE: The crews of
Sea Shepherd’s ocean going circus vow
they are willing to forfeit their lives to save whales. Apparently Ms. West was willing to forfeit
her life, however not willing to forfeit her vomit.
This qualified willingness to forfeit a life to save whales was
also demonstrated by their sacred leader Paul Watson. He too is willing to forfeit his life to save
whales, but not his freedom as evident when he jumped bail in Germany to avoid
a jail in either Costa Rica or Japan.
Ms. West heart wrenching account of her two-week sea
sickness:
