Why is this relevant? There is news out there, like what the catch and price was for the second opening for PWS. Or how about the news that Copper River Seafoods is buying Snug Harbor Seafoods. Or how about the news that Great Pacific shut down all operations in Alaska. Look I'm sorry the guy is dead, but if this blog is about Alaska fisheries then there is a problem here.
sounds like your a KNOWITALL and you already know the news !!!! A man died on a fishing boat have a heart!
7:18 PM,
Just start your own blog and then everything you feel is important will get posted...
BTW, the Starbound and the men that work on it are strongly imbedded in the Alaskan fishing industry.
This "kid" you don't want to hear about is my cousin and you would be lucky to meet him he had the biggest heart and that warmest hugs before his death he got himself his dream car he paid for with his paycheck from this boat and he got an apartment with his girlfriend his life was begging and it's important to post this information about his death because it happened on the boat and I know he wouldn't go into the paneling he was smarter than that and if you need to know my cousin and I are family of the owners of Starbound or whatever and this was the most tragic thing to happen he was young and a happy person I miss him everyday
