Description: A crew member fishing from the Greenpeace ship Vega, catches a fish labelled 'Protest laws' which he describes as a 'toothless gumfish'. In the background an oil drilling ship awaits... On 26 November 2013 a crew member and former Green Party co-leader, Jeannette Fitzsimons, said that the Vega defied the recently enacted protest law by entering the 500 metre zone around the Andarko vessel, the Noble Bob Douglas and forcing it to delay drilling. On 27 November Anadarko exercised its licence to drill for oil west of Raglan, forcing the Greenpeace Oil Free Seas Flotilla to abandon its protest in favour of a legal challenge.
