Bigger Crane = More Deadly Nets Pulled
Dear John,
This month, Sea Shepherd’s flagship, the M/V Seahorse upgraded its crane to triple its ghost net-pulling capacity in the UNESCO-recognized habitat of the most endangered marine mammal on earth, the Vaquita.
As many of our supporters know, ghost nets drift for months and even years, entangling and often killing marine life, and pushing many species to the brink of extinction. In partnership with the Mexican government, Sea Shepherd has removed more than 1,000 deadly ghost nets in the last 10 years from the protected area of the Vaquita Refuge. In 2023 alone we have pulled more than 10 miles of nets from the Upper Gulf. But we need to do more.
And this is how we’ll do it: the one-ton crane on the M/V Seahorse has been replaced by a three-ton crane, tripling the vessel’s net-pulling capacity and bringing more relief to the countless species in the region. Check out this time-lapse video of our old crane being removed

Once the new crane and other repairs are complete, the Seahorse will return to the Upper Gulf and kick-off Sea Shepherd’s 11th year of working with the Mexican Government to protect the endangered Vaquita Porpoise and the at-risk Totoaba.
