I hate stories like that I guarantee American fisherman have your their thoughts with you. Such a hard living and can be fruitful but very dangerous and one thing I think we all respect cannot get more honest than that. No wall strreet or big wig will dictate the terms of what the ocean gives you. Why its such a honest profession, in fact one of the few left standing and wish people would bring that up more., but that is for another day, ask around because all countries will help with that search, one of the last good things I see in this world.

it was also carrying 5,800 live cattle so it's so hard imagining all of those drowning too.
