MY Steve Irwin
The MY ''Steve Irwin'' is the flagship of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, and used in their direct action campaigns against whaling and other activities the group opposes. The vessel was built in 1975 and formerly served as a Scottish Fisheries Protection Agency conservation enforcement patrol boat, the FPV ''Westra'', for 28 years.
Sea Shepherd had originally christened the vessel the MV ''Robert Hunter'' after Canadian Robert Hunter,〔(Neptune's Navy ), Sea Shepherd Conservation Society〕 co-founder of Greenpeace, but it was renamed in honor of ''The Crocodile Hunter'' star Steve Irwin on December 5, 2007.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sea Shepherd Renames Its Whale Defending Ship the Steve Irwin )〕 Irwin had considered joining the vessel on a voyage to Antarctica shortly before his death, and the renaming was endorsed by his widow Terri.〔(Sea Shepherd honours Steve Irwin Perth Now, December 5, 2007 )〕
The ship and its crew, and their efforts for conservation, are the subject of the Animal Planet show ''Whale Wars''.
==Registration==
In January 2007, the ship was struck from the British Ship Register after a Japanese request.〔(Britain to deregister anti-whaler after Japan pipes up ), The Age, January 30, 2007〕 The ship has been registered in the Netherlands as of October 8, 2007.〔(Neptune’s Navy ), The New Yorker, November 5, 2007〕
