Sea Shepherd uses T-shirt cannon in battle with Japanese whalers

Sea Shepherd ship Steve Irwin speeds up in order to give the whalers a taste of their own medicine (water cannons). In order to counter the Whalers accusations of illegal activities the Steve Irwin sets off her own Broad Castin System which repeatedly stated that they are acting with accordance with the United Nations World Charter for Nature. Unlike the Yushin Maru, the Captain of the Steve Irwin is able to skillfully avoid a collision.

Knowing that simply throwing a bottle won't work anymore, Sea Shepherds have decided to upgrade from throwing by hand to using a T-shirt cannon, which launches biodegradable bottles, filled with eco-friendly rotten butter onto the decks of the whaling ships. This T-shirt cannon can launch things as far as 80 yards, I'm sure you have all seen T-shirt cannons used in ball games before. This new tactic easily makes the netting on the whaling ships useless.
