A tribute to the flagship M / Y Steve Irwin of the environmental organization Sea Shepherd.

Prevent whaling, pursue poachers, protect marine animals from extinction - if the ships of the Sea Shepherd fleet break through the waves, survival is essential. The international movement is committed to protecting marine wildlife with absolute determination and strength. The mostly voluntary members start their struggle for the world's oceans from the coasts in more than 20 countries.

Ships are indispensable for the fight against whaling on the world's oceans - Sea Shepherd owns some of them, but the most famous ship in the fleet is the MY Steve Irwin. The Iceland-class patrol boat and former flagship of the Sea Shepherd fleet had been in operation for 28 years under the name "FPV Westra" before being purchased by the environmental organization for the Scottish Fisheries Control Agency. When it was taken over by Sea Shepherd in 2006, the boat was initially renamed "MY Robert Hunter" after the Canadian Robert Hunter, who was the co-founder of the Greenpeace Foundation.

At the end of 2007, the organization changed the name to "MY Steve Irwin" in memory of the late Australian environmentalist who originally intended to accompany Sea Shepherd on the ship's first operation. The "Operation Migaloo" campaign successfully tackled illegal whaling in the Southern Ocean through the Japanese whaling fleet - a concern that Steve Irwin, who died shortly before the start of the operations, has always been a matter close to his heart because he has always loved the wonderful creatures of the world to have.

With 18 missions, the Steve Irwin has participated in more campaigns than any other ship in the current fleet. The ship was retired last year and will now be exhibited as a museum ship in Williamstown (Victoria, Australia). Whether it should also be used for other purposes is still being checked - e.g. are talking about using part of the ship as a vegan restaurant and as a tattoo studio.

With regard to the origin of this ship and the important role at Sea Shepherd, Signatory and the German Signatory Impoteur had to dedicate a special bottling in the Sea Shepherd series to this ship. Appropriately, a Bunnahabhain from the island of Islay was selected for this, which ripened from 2006-2019 in a 1st Fill Sherry Butt - the same period in which the ship was used by the Sea Shepherd organization. The whiskey was bottled by Signatory with an alcohol content of 46% vol.

A total of 746 bottles of this limited filling are available - as always not colored and not cold filtered.

Of course, part of the proceeds from this bottling go to the Sea Shepherd organization.
