It's not unanimous, but Japanese people generally are people that are involved in all kinds of cruelty to animals and environmental destruction

That's a great idea - but they'll need a lot more than the <1 BTC they've received so far!

A ship named Satoshi Nakamoto would be a great idea.
It would be a terrible idea.
Nobody outside Japan would care, whereas in Japan it would turn what should be a positive here (Bitcoin was made by a Japanese person, possibly!) into a big negative.
It's not unanimous, but Japanese people generally aren't impressed with people from other countries that are involved in all kinds of cruelty to animals and environmental destruction fixating on the one industry that Japan has and they don't and trying to shut it down.

Stupid idea and waste of donation.

Ask them how much they need for a 2nd another ship and lets make it happen.
fixedI'm in and pledge 50BTC.
Keep me updated.

This would provide some pretty amazing publicity. Ask them how much they need for a 2nd ship and lets make it happen.

Ask them if we can get their address to 2000 BTC if they'll do it

A ship named Satoshi Nakamoto would be a great idea.
A ship named "Bitcoin" would be a terrible idea. Too gimmicky. Not everything has to be blatantly obvious.
I would pledge to this pool. I have already been donating regularly to Sea Shepherd ever since I found out they accepted Bitcoin donations.

Better off to call the ship Bitcoin. Satoshi Nakamoto is a psuedonym and a name that most of the populous will not equate with Bitcoin.
People will say 'oh whos that' -> google -> Bitcoin
Ah but the rivals of Sea Shepherds are Japanese whalers. It might irk them somewhat to see a ship with a pseudo Japanese name. 
They do have the Yoshka already, I dont think its Japanese but it sure sounds it - just like Satoshi!

What if Bitcointalk.org started a pool to donate money to Sea Shepherd so they can buy a new ship (or rename an existing ship thus) and name it Satoshi Nakamoto. If it is shown on Whale Wars that would be a great way to advertise Bitcoin. And it would help to save the whales and stuff.

Start a Bitcoin crowdfunding campaign around it so he can buy a new ship. I agree would be a good marketing tool for Bitcoin and naming the ship Satoshi Nakamoto would be amazing!
