The Captain Paul Watson Foundation has purchased the first ship of what will be Neptune’s Navy.
The former 73-meter British Fisheries patrol vessel Vigilant is now the John Paul DeJoria thanks to the generous contribution of longtime supporter John Paul DeJoria.
The ship is presently in England and will be ready for sea and campaigns in early 2023.
The ship powered by two Ruston 12 cylinder diesel engines gives us the speed and the range needed for campaigns anywhere we are needed.
Dozens of volunteers have applied to crew already, and the ship is being outfitted to hunt down and intervene against illegal and destructive activities on the high seas.
