The only possible investor for King Cove is Pacific. If they have done their homework, they won't touch it with a 10-foot pole. The seine fleet fishes for SBS and a few for Trident. The gillnet fleet is SBS and will continue to be so as long as SBS has Port Moller. A few local seiners would go with a new operator in the Cove but not enough to make it work. The previous owners gave up their Bering Sea pollock shares. Crab from the Bering Sea is over. Gulf cod and crab is insignificant. Gulf pollock can add up, but the Cove pollock line is not competitive. There is a 95 percent likelihood that processing in King Cove is over.
