A strange, bouncy crew member has appeared on the Esperanza's bridge. Spinning above the autopilot, he looks pleased with himself. Initially, he was referred to as 'Dave'. The thing is, the wooden dolphin on the Rainbow Warrior is also called 'Dave'. On board the Esperanza, there's already two human Daves. So now the little guy - our mascot - is being referred to as 'The Trawler Pixie', or 'The Trawler Finder'.
So... we've decided to run a little competition. Between now and October 29th, we want you to suggest names for 'The Trawler Pixie' - the suggestions will be voted on by Esperanza crew members, and the lucky person who chooses the most popular name will win themselves a copy of Rex Wyler's book Greenpeace. Post your entries in the comments section below!
I think that the pixie should be named Trules the Trawler Imp, as its such a cool nordic name, and you are out there somwhere near Norway?? have a cool time folks ( I am sure you will?!) and you are doing a great job. Cheers from Oz.

He should be called Hero.
For all the heros of GreenPeace that risk their lives and give their lives so we all can live a better one.

Well I think he could be a relative of the jet-setting garden gnome in Amelie - but I don't think he had a name......so I shall merely put forward the name cederic.

"Bottom's Up"
Permanent watch on those buggers scratching the bottom of the ocean. Also for those of you who are scratching their bottoms instead of watching.
For all of you after you win this campaign and
celebrate with your favourite nip
good luck!
