Meet the Crew: Captain Bart Schulting

Monday, 08 May, 2017

Name: Bart Schulting
Nationality: Dutch
Ship / Position:  The M/V Bob Barker / Captain
Previous campaigns: Operation Sola Stella is Bart’s first campaign

"When I am not with Sea Shepherd I work as a captain for a ship delivery company, delivering vessels all over the world and I spend as much time possible with my family cruising around in our sailboat. As a mariner I see on a daily basis how we are destroying the oceans, with more and more plastic and less wildlife. I just did a ten thousand mile long delivery voyage without seeing a single whale or dolphin and that makes me really sad. Joining Sea Shepherd is for me the best way to do something about this and other issues concerning the oceans and marine wildlife. I got involved with Sea Shepherd when I joined the Ocean Warrior on her maiden voyage as an advisor to familiarize the Sea Shepherd crew with their newest vessel."
