The
Rainbow Warrior III, the new (christened in Oct 2011) purpose-built motor-assisted sailing yacht owned and operated by
Greenpeace, is currently sailing in South African waters en route from
Cape Town to
Durban. Once the ship is in
Durban, one will have the opportunity to come aboard to find out why the
Rainbow Warrior III is a shining example of green ship engineering and to learn about her use in
Greenpeace's work to protect the planet. All tours onboard the ship will be completely free.
Although
Greenpeace is currently unable to confirm an exact date for when the ship will dock in
Durban, it is most likely to be in the first week of September 2012.
