Whale Wars: Watson's Last Stand - Season 1

After seven years battling at sea, the Sea Shepherd's victory is short-lived after Japan promises to resume hunting whales in Antarctica. Later, the Bridgitte Bardot is struck by a rogue wave and her crew prepares to abandon ship.

Terrified of the Brigitte Bardot capsizing, its crew begins to panic. While a Japanese security vessel lurks nearby, the captain finally orders an evacuation. In Antarctica, crew from the Bob Barker go after a harpoon ship.

As the Brigitte Bardot limps toward land with their exhausted skeleton crew, the Steve Irwin sends three activists to infiltrate the Shonan Maru 2. Captain Watson hopes the media attention will stop the ship from following them.

The Sea Shepherd's helicopter disappears while investigating a large target on their radar. The Barker finds the target, sparking an eight-mile gauntlet that is blocked by harpoon vessels determined to jeopardize their mission.

Captain Paul Watson is forced to step down, leaving four rookie captains to continue his mission by launching a battle against whalers in Antarctica; Captain Peter Hammarstedt risks everything to stop a Japanese factory ship.

In Captain Watson's absence, Peter Hammarstedt leads during the Sea Shepherd's 10th anti-whaling mission; as a brutal storm brews, he finds himself struggling to maintain control of the crew while the Japanese are looming nearby.
