The Ady Gil was designed to run on low-emission, renewable fuels and was built with materials that would make it difficult for radars to detect so that it could sneak up of whaling vessels and disrupt the hunt.
So, how\’d that work out then?
The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society claimed its 78 ft protest powerboat the Ady Gil was \”sliced in half\” by the Japanese security ship Shonan Maru 2 as it loitered near the whaling fleet.
Maybe there\’s a reason you want boats to be detectable by radar?
