Yes, this is indeed THE Rainbow Warrior III - the infamous campaign vessel used by Greenpeace. It was docked a few blocks from my house last week and I was able to go on board and have a tour! Another check off the bucket list :-). Pretty sure if I was a teenager I would have tried to stow away.

This visit they were protesting the tar sands in Alberta and helping to raise awareness to free the 30 crew being held in a Russian prison for a peaceful protest against arctic drilling.
