Deckboss is looking into a report of a death last Saturday aboard the Seattle-based factory trawler Starbound.

Unfortunately the young man was only 19 years old with big dreams of being an Alaskan fisherman. His accidental but tragic death is a testament of the dangers these young brave souls endure on a daily basis. His lost is still very hard to believe and the shock of it's reality is so unbearable, creating endless pain in the hearts of so many. A beautiful soul inside and out, gone way to soon. RIP with all our love.
