When I was younger , I fished with some of the most honest , hardworking crewmen & captains in the North -East . Yes there were always some losers who would " Sign -On " for a trip. They didn't last long after their reputations got around the docks. This jerk is a perfect example of them . And also not every crewman on every type of fishing vessel, is a fugitive , criminal or is hiding from something or some- one .

For 5 yrs we watched you two grow and every time when you were onboard we watched you grow up. I was a Merchant Mariner and I am so so sad for the loss of your dad. I bet that he was NOT only a Captain on the boat but also @ home. Watching you guys kid around with the "OLD MAN" was so great and me wish I had a father like Phil. They say that "you don't know if an angel was near you and I know I watched an amgel in disguse.

God bless two guys and I know your dad will be with you whatever you decide to,

May GOd bless you and rember what your dad taught you and you won't go wrong. You will see a new Eagle in the harbor and you better watch out cause he is checking uup on you.

From what I could see Jousha was a loser! We all watched him spent time in his bunk when everyone else was on deck working. His final appearance was highlighted by him making up a story about someone in his family shipping out to Iraq. Everyone could tell he wanted off the boat so bad it was pathetic. Surprised by his arrest no way.

My husband and I don't miss a show. It is amazing what they go thru so I can eat crab. One bad deck hand should not put a black mark on the rest of the show.
