Default Re: "Ady Gil" sunk by whalers

An escalation indeed. I read on the web that SS has sunk 10 whale boats over the years though not sure how true this is?

Shame about the Ady Gil, as much as anything a very cool looking boat.

One report I read describes the boat as minding its own business and then being rammed but a pic shows the whale boat with a taught line presumeably to a whale with the Ady Gil below the bow about to be run-over. More transparency and less bickering would help methinks.
