by Dave, onboard the Esperanza

More great news! As the Esperanza approaches Santa Cruz de Tenerife, we've just heard from Sara, who's back in Las Palmas, that the government will be confiscating any fish from Guinean waters that they find on board the Binar 4. The fisheries ministry have also invited us along to witness their inspection of the reefer. We don't know when the inspection will be yet - stay tuned, I'm sure there will be more news on this.

Thats wonderful news and very encouraging that Greenpeace have been invited along to the inspection.

Hope everyone on the Espy is having a good day

Excellent! Well done to all the activists who stayed on the ship and/or got arrested. Your efforts have paid off.

Thank you!

Well Done...

So while the Esp. travels off onto the next leg of her journey what's happening to the people in jail? Have they been released? Are they still being held?

Have fun I'm looking forward to reading the next update...
