For the previous vessel of the same name, see RV Farley Mowat.

MY Farley Mowat (formerly USCGC Pea Island (WPB-1347)) is a cutter owned and operated by the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. She is being used in their direct action campaigns against whaling and against illegal fisheries activities.[2]

In January 2015, Sea Shepherd purchased two decommissioned Island Class patrol boat 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 MY Jules Verne and MY Farley Mowat, respectively.[2] The Jules Verne was later renamed the MV John Paul DeJoria after Sea shepherd supporter John Paul DeJoria. They were joined by another ex-USCG island class cutter in December 2017, the MV Sharpie.[3] The MY Farley Mowat is currently serving in the Sea Shepherd's Operation Milagro alongside the MY Sam Simon, MV White Holly and MV Sharpie [4]
