MARE*GO is sailing again. Last Monday she left Ceuta, crossed the street of Gibraltar and is know entering the Atlantic Ocean! One flip around the corner and along the coast of Portugal. The weather conditions are sometimes challenging, but the old lady is on her way back home.

We are moored for Diesel and provision. Exactly where thousands of #refugees are desperately trying to reach a safe place! And civil society no longer has a chance to intervene in a humanitarian way here either, just like on Lesbos, #EU has managed to implement the idea of a fortress so radically!

MARE*GO arrived in Ceuta yesterday! The first big jump. From Licata to Ceuta took 9 days and nights without a break. #zusammenland #marego_vessel

Kapitän Jürgen Schwandt hat seine letzte Reise angetreten. Möge er in Frieden ruhen. 🕯️ ⚓

Vorbei an #Algerien wo die Kollegen von @themarker.bsky.social die aus #tierwohl Sicht schlimmsten Exporte aus Österreich dokumentiert haben. Unterstützt dieses #Cowfinding-Projekt um diese ökologisch sowie sozialwirtschaftlich sinnlosen Praxis zu beenden!

MARE*GO is sailing with 5.5 knots (around 10 km/h) along the North African coast line. Today she passes Galite of Tunisia. There are still many more mikes to go, crossing fingers for the best weather conditions! #zusammenland #marego_vessel

MARE*GOes Nordic Sea! Today we started the journey to the origin. After 9 legendary years as search and rescue vessel she will get her retirement in Germany. Some new charity projects are waiting there for her. #zusammenland #marego_vessel

We have to cancel the three-month deployment for summer 2024. After the first three weeks, there are too many small and large technical issues and security concerns. We now have to look for the causes and solve problems from the ground up instead of just dealing with the symptoms.

SARAH bereitet sich in Licata vor auf ihre erste Mission. Coole Nachbarn hier @marego.bsky.social :) #CivilFleet #gemeinsamretten

Dear all, we have technical problems with MARE*GO and our RIB #leavenoonebehind. It appears to be serious, therefore we are heading back to Port of Licata.

Info und Austausch zur zivilen Seenotrettung mit der @marego.bsky.social am Dienstag im Neubad Luzern. Marie kommt vorbei und erzählt. Gerne über die Einsätze und das Einsatzkonzept, aber auch über Instandhaltung von einem alten Schiff und Betrieb, Kosten, Einnahmen und Herausforderungen.

Between two bad weather fronts we are back on site. Together with @en.sea-watch.org Seabird at lookout to find every single person out there... #zusammenland #gemeinsamretten #leavenoonebehind

All rescued people arrived safely in the port of Pozzallo today. We are very happy that we could be a part of their journey to Europe. After a short preparation, the crew is ready to head back to be operational again. #gemeinsamretten #leavenoonebehind #zusammenland

Last night the crew of Mare*Go performed another rescue. We took the people on board & are heading towards our port of safety Pozzallo, Sicily. A lot of the people have been on the move for a long time, we are happy to assist them on their last steps. #zusammenland #leavenoonebehind #gemeinsamretten

We are currently accompanying a rubber boat to assure the safety of the people on their way. We won't stop until all people reached a place of safety! Thanks to Seabirdcrew @seawatchcrew @hpiswiss @alarmphone.bsky.social for the great collaboration! #zusammenland #leavenoonebehind #gemeinsamretten

The first rescue of the deployment ended successfully. #marego_vessel #zusammenland #leavenoonebehind #searchandrescue #united4rescue

The old Mare*Go makes it’s way down south to the SAR Zone. After an intense period of training and preparation our crew is now ready for this long deployment! We are not alone in this: we are very happy that the crew of @Dakini is out as well! #leavenoonebehind #zusammenland #searchandrescue

The new crew is in the middle of the training week! After three deployments this year, it’s time to sort all life jackets out. #zusammenland #marego_vessel #searchandrescue #leavenoonebehind

Third deployment of MARE*GO in 2024. What a though time, the weather conditions were at several stages quite hard. But the crew of MARE*GO did a really good job! This deployment was partly financed by @gls.treuhand #marego_vessel #zusammenland #leavenoonebehind #searchandrescue

Today we received an e-mail from a distress case by @alarmphone.bsky.social . As we searched for them, we found another boat in need of assistance! We provided lifejackets and accompanied them for hours until the Italian Coast Guard took them on board! #zusammenland #safepassage #defendsolidarity

[1/2] One month ago, representatives from Pharmacists Without Borders (AoG) visited our rescue ship Humanity 1 in Syracuse! Since 2024, #Pharmacists Without Borders has been our ‘exclusive medical partner’ and, in addition to financial support, provides pharmaceutical expertise and advice.

Today, a few hours ago, we were able to assist people close to #lampedusa to reach safely! We will continue to do this until it is no longer necessary and safe passage is a reality for all! #leavenoonebehind #zusammenland #safepassage

Yesterday, we were able to assist people in distress at sea by accompanying them for hours. With the help of #Sea-Eye4, they are now on their way to a port of safety. Working together makes us more resilient! Fair winds! #zusammenland #safepassage #civilfleet

After intense days of training, the new crew of MARE*GO is heading towards the Central Med, to stand in solidarity with people on the move once again! #leavenoonebehind  #zusammenland #safepassage

Due to the ongoing bad weather and sea state unfortunately there is no chance for us to be operative during this rotation. We hope that the weather improves soon, so the next crew can continue our commitment: to support people on the move & smash fortress Europe! #solidarity #resistance

1/5 Yesterday, we were able to assist people on the move as soon as we woke up. We then had the possibility and duty of accompanying other people looking for safety, and while we were doing so, we spotted in the distance five more boats. We heard as well several calls for help

Today we could help other people find a safe passage after being in distress at sea. We want people to be able to freely move with no danger and no violence! #leavenoonebehind #safepassage #United4Rescue #zusammenland

Today we were able to assist people in distress, they had been at sea for four days in incredibly difficult conditions. This was all possible due to our friends SY Dakini and of course @alarmphone that alerted us in the first place! #leavenoonebehind #zusammenland #United4Rescue

We need again your volunteer strength, so come aboard! mare-go.de/einsatz/

www.startnext.com/neuer-kran-f... Get some presents now and help to finance the new crane for Mare*Go… Together we almost made it and we can be again there for the People on the Move next year!

MARE*GO is now heading towards her home port -this one was a short rotation because of the weather. We want to be back as soon as possible, next year in March, to keep doing what we are good at: denouncing the racist regime where we live in #FortressEurope #civilfleet #LeaveNoOneBehind

MARE*GO has now started its final rotation of the year! Our crew is ready, once again, to stand in solidarity with people on the move, against #FortressEurope We are not alone in this: we are happy that @Dakini is also heading towards the same area #civilfleet

www.startnext.com/neuer-kran-f... please support us now! In this Startnext campaign we are collecting money for a new crane. Our RIB GREEN needs an easier way to get into water and out again.

Stell dir vor du bist sogenannter Sozialdemokrat und distanzierst dich von der Rettung von Menschen, weil das einer Faschistin nicht gefällt. Was passiert hier.

first post, not a lot to say. Thanks to @punex.bsky.social that we could join here. We need some time to get used to all of this and not getting lost in searching and finding out. Still other things to do as well 😉
