Seabird Smart Awards 2021
Updated: Feb 3, 2023
The Seabird Smart Awards 2021 ceremony was held with a twist this year, taking place via a virtual platform.
And while we missed seeing everyone in person, an online ceremony meant more people could join us including overseas viewers, to celebrate our winners.
The Supreme Champion Award was awarded to Dave Moore and Darrin Fabricius of Wild Fish (NZ) Ltd:
Mike Te Pou, Skipper of FV The Commission won our Mitigation Champion Award:
Tony Walker of TK Offshore Fishing took out the Advocacy Champion Award:
and Jesse Crasborn and Crew of Sealord’s FV Rehua won the Innovation Champion Award!
In addition to our four trophy awards, Katrina Bowers received a Special Recognition Certificate for her voluntary work educating recreational fishers about risks to seabirds:
