MV John Paul DeJoria

MV John Paul DeJoria is a cutter class vessel owned and operated by the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. She is being used in their direct action campaigns against illegal fisheries activities. In January 2015, Sea Shepherd purchased two decommissioned Island-class patrol boats from the United States Coast Guard, capable of a top speed of 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph). They were USCGC Block Island and USCGC Pea Island, and were renamed MV Jules Verne and MY Farley Mowat after famous authors, respectively. They were joined by another ex-USCG island class cutter in December 2017, the MV Sharpie.
