Trawler in standoff with Greenpeace
The crew of the 'Helen Mary' warned against trawling in the Central Fladen protected area, east of Scotland by Greenpeace campaigners who had climbed on board the vessel. Activists on board the Greenpeace ship 'Esperanza' sailed up to the ship and informed its captain the vessel was in a Marine Protected Area (MPA). The conservationists said its request for the ship to stop fishing in the region was ignored.. Several activists were abseiling down the side of the vessel and put up a red banner which read “Ban supertrawlers now!” Amid the stand-off, fishing deterrents were also placed in the vessels nets before the German-flagged boat left the area. The Pelagic Freezer-trawler Association, which represents the interests of nine European pelagic freezer-trawler companies, including firms in Germany, has denied the vessel was doing anything against the rules.
