Dear friends and supporters of Marie Sharp's Germany,

Today we'd like to talk to you about a cause that's particularly dear to our hearts as a brand. We at Marie Sharp's Germany have been committed to supporting the marine conservation organization Sea Shepherd since the very beginning, and I'd like to tell you why.

Our oceans, these wonderful and deep waters, are not only sources of beauty but also vital habitats for countless species. Unfortunately, they are under threat, threatened by pollution, overfishing, and climate change. The marine balance is at stake, and it's high time we all took responsibility.

Sea Shepherd is an organization passionate about protecting the oceans. They are the guardians of the oceans, fighting illegal fishing, advocating for the preservation of endangered species, and fighting environmental crimes on the high seas. As the team at Marie Sharp's Germany, we share this passion for protecting our oceans and want to do our part to ensure they remain intact for future generations.
It's not just about the waves that roll onto our beaches or the breathtaking diversity of marine life. It's about protecting habitats that are vital to the balance of our planet. It's about the responsibility we bear to ensure that our children and grandchildren can experience the beauty and wonder of the oceans, just as we can today.
With every bottle of Marie Sharp's you enjoy, you help support this mission. A portion of the proceeds goes directly to Sea Shepherd to support their vital work. We want to not only provide great products, but also make a positive impact on the world.

Let's take a stand together and protect our oceans. By supporting Marie Sharp's Germany, you'll help ensure that the waves of hope and protection continue to roll across our seas.
Thank you for being part of this journey and for joining us in our fight to preserve our oceans.

Together we can achieve great things.

OPERATION ALBACORE

Since 2016, Sea Shepherd Global has provided the M/Y Bob Barker as a civilian offshore patrol vessel to defend, conserve, and protect critical tuna habitats in Central West Africa. In June 2019, two years after Gabon announced the creation of the largest network of marine protected areas in Africa, Sea Shepherd launched its fourth campaign in partnership with the Gabonese authorities.

Cooperation with local authorities in Gabon

Gabonese marines (Marine Nationale), fisheries inspectors from the Gabonese Fisheries Inspection Agency (ANPA), and rangers from the National Authority for National Parks (ANPN) will be stationed aboard Sea Shepherd's M/Y Bob Barker and will work alongside the Sea Shepherd crew to patrol Gabon's sovereign waters. These patrols will provide a law enforcement vehicle to defend, conserve, and protect critical tuna habitat in Central West Africa.

In August 2016, Operation Albacore expanded to the Central African island nation of São Tomé and Príncipe. With Sea Shepherd's support, São Tomé and Príncipe authorities boarded a Spanish-flagged longliner licensed to fish for tuna and discovered fish holds filled with finned sharks, in violation of the European Union's fishing ban.
