Earthrace Sea Shepherd Delays, Skipper’s Cheese Cravings
Written by Vegetarian Star on October 30th, 2009 in Animal Issues.
The Sea Shepherd Earthrace boat that was set to depart from Auckland Australia and begin the journey sailing the Southern Ocean to protect whales from Japanese whaling was delayed today.
According to Skipper Pete Bethune, “last minute fit out delays” will keep the boat docked for another week.
Bethune will have one more week to give into his dairy cravings, as crew members will once again be required to eat vegan during the Whale Wars filming.
“No more cheese or chocolate on the boat so that’s pretty hard,” Bethune said.
Quick, now’s the chance for Bethune to stock up on the vegan chocolate and nut cheese before the three month sail.
Bethune is not vegetarian by choice, but following the Sea Shepherd rules.
