*MALWARE ALERT*

Dr. Bonny Schumaker

While not unexpected the NAUTICAL LOG protection system, which is quite a good one, gave a MALWARE ALERT after some comments were opened for examination before publication. It has been some time since this has happened but we are always aware, it is one of the reasons why we no longer publish unidentified and undocumented sources. Suggest you check your own systems and always use a good protection system.

A trace back indicated that it appeared to be 'piggy-back' attached to a comment from a pro-SSCS reader. If this has been done and is confirmed as to whom attached the MALWARE then NAUTICAL LOG will publish the source. Of course this is not the first time this has happened and we have added additional virus scans on incoming comments with trace back to sources.

Naturally we are now more determined than ever to publish our opinions and your comments on the SSCS Pirate Group.

**Dr. Bonny Schumaker is a Director of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and has served in the SSCS vessels MS Steve Irwin and MS Bob Barker as a crewmember. In 2010 Dr. Schumaker reported that Pingvin Island does not in fact exist. Pingvin Island is shown on editions of International Chart #72, Australian Charts #452 & #4074 at 65 degrees 47 minutes South latitude, 81 degrees 55 minutes East longitude.
NAUTICAL LOG wishes to inform Dr. Schumaker that her comment was removed by the Administrator and no further comments from her will be published.**

PAINT LOCKER FIRES

The photographs above are revealing in several ways, lets have a look. Clearly the Japanese Maritime Self Defence Force (JMSDF) vessel JS "Kurama" impacted the Korean container ship MS "Carina Star" just aft of the turn of the fo'cs'le on the Starboard side. Please note that's the Starboard side, thus it appears JS "Kurama" would have shown "Carina Star" the red port sidelight and "Carina Star" would have shown JS "Kurama" the green starboard sidelight. This impact point would tend to suggest that JS "Kurama" was the 'stand-on' vessel and the MS "Carina Star" is the 'giving-way' vessel. Until there is a complete plot of the tracks made good of both these vessels and the position in the Kanmon Strait of the point of collision no determination can actually be made. As a result of this impact there was severe bow damage to JS "Kurama" and in addition a massive f

HOW TO WEAR A LIFEJACKET

A popular U.S.-based cruise ship style A popular European ferry style Several times during the year NAUTICAL LOG has had visitors searching for lifejacket instructions. With two just over Christmas we decided to publish something for everybody to see and read. Choose a Coast Guard approved life-jacket and make sure it is undamaged. Make sure life-jackets are readily accessible, never locked away. Check the fit, there are adult, child and infant sizes, the correct one MUST be used. Choose bright colour life-jackets so as to be seen easily by Search and Rescue (SAR). Put your life-jacket ON BEFORE you leave the berth. Make sure you have a light and whistle attached AND they BOTH WORK. Good Watch

BOUILLABAISSE

TAAF Service vessel operated by CMA CGM TAAF Regional flag Well now let us see if here at NAUTICAL LOG we have got a grasp on things simmering in the pot. It seems that when the anti-whaling campaign started out some years ago it was between Greenpeace, the Sea Shepherds and the Japanese whaling fleet. The Australians came down to their own Southern Ocean Territory in a chartered civilian vessel one year. Beyond taking photographs and returning some Sea Shepherds to their ship the MS "Steve Irwin" not much was accomplished. The Greenpeace crowd then dropped out and Animal Planet boarded the MS "Steve Irwin" to shoot 'reality TV' and so Whale Wars came into being. This resulted in some deplorable behaviour on all sides and some appalling exhibitions of seamanship - or rather total lack of seamanship by the Sea Shepherds. But now there was money coming in which could be spent on - well nobody really knows what the money is spent on. New Zealand made it q
