Migaloo 2, a yacht bought to raise awareness on important issues facing whales, dolphins and ocean health, recently arrived to the Gold Coast. Crew members Dean Jefferys and Howie Cookie, from Surfers For Cetaceans, invited Sea Shepherd Gold Coast to attend a ceremony in the water. On Sunday morning, we all met up at the Migaloo 2, docked near Sea World, to create a Commemorative Circle for all the Dolphins killed and captured in Japan. The event was streamed live at http://migaloo2.com/ and even made the evening news! Afterwards, we all relaxed aboard the yacht and learned more about the Migaloo 2 campaign.
Dean Jefferys said “We are sailing along the east coast of Australia to Hervey Bay during the humpback whale migration visiting ports along the way showing films and giving talks about critical issues facing whales, dolphins and marine health. We also plan to do lots of live internet streaming from Migaloo 2 so the whole world including the Japanese can see what amazing beings the whales and dolphins really are".
