You got the story backwards about Pete Bethune. It was Captain Bethune's vessel, the Addy Gil, which was rammed by the Shonan Maru 2 and then sank. He was taken into Japanese custody when he later attempted to board the Shonan Maru 2.

Nice accurate Whale Wars reporting there. Sad. Does anyone on this site fact check?
