Longway 010 - Defending Our Oceans Tour (West Africa: 2006)
Chinese fishing boat Longway 010. The rusting fishing vessel appears unusable but is still in use. The location is 60 miles off Conakry, Guinea. This is the hidden story behind pirate fishing - the conditions of near-slavery imposed by ruthless fishing companies in the rush for quick money. The men on board aren't pirates - they're the victims, left to rot on broken-down trawlers, half a world away from their families. Human life is cheap, and profits take priority as the workers exist in terrible conditions often waiting for crew that never arrives. Some of them have been at sea for two years, and their trawler hasn't visited a port.
