In today's very important episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation Podcast - we get a first hand account of Captain Watson's arrest from Captain Locky MacLean.

On July 21 2024, Captain Paul Watson was arrested by Danish police upon arrival in Nuuk, Greenland, onboard the M/Y John Paul DeJoria. Danish authorities claim that the arrest was made due to an international arrest warrant issued by Japan, related to his anti-whaling campaigns in the Antarctic more than a decade ago.

Paul faces the possibility of extradition to Japan, where he would serve a life sentence.

In this episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation podcast, we get a chance to speak with deckhand Dennis Alvey. Dennis is a veteran volunteer with Captain Watson, having served on the Cleveland Amory in the 1990's. Dennis gives us insight into a day in the life of a deckhand aboard the John Paul Dejoria. He also shares his advice for those who are thinking about volunteering with Neptune's Navy. These are critical times for the crew as they get ready to confront Kristján Loftsson out on the high seas around Iceland. Let's hope the crew is successful in protecting the lives of fin whales.

In this episode of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation (CPWF), we will be speaking with Captain Locky MacLean who is currently on our new ship the Bandero. The Bandero is in Hobart, Tasmania preparing for its first mission. Locky describes the aspects of the Bandero that make it the perfect vessel for the kind of work that CPWF does out at sea. The Bandero was built by the Japanese government to patrol the southern district of Japan's maritime boundary. Captain MacLean gives us insight into the Japanese whaling industry and tells us what their current actions may suggest about their future whaling plans. We also get a chance to talk about volunteering as a crew member aboard the CPWF fleet.
