1980 - The pirate whalers "Susan" and "Theresa" sunk in South Africa. 1981 - The illegal whaling ships "Hvalur 6" and "Hvalur 7" sunk in Iceland.

1992 - The outlaw whaler "Nybraena" sunk in Norway. 1994 - The pirate whaler "Senet" sunk in Norway.

1998 - The pirate whaler "Morild" sunk in Norway.


But you are right about the kidnapping. It was the Sea Shepard guys who were captured when they boarded a Japanese ship.
OK I stand corrected.

But still.. on their website they express pride in the fact that no lives were lost as a result of their activities.
