We lost a commercial fishing boat on Friday morning on the Grays Harbor Bar, and the captain of the boat remains missing and is presumed dead. Three of the four people on board were rescued by the US Coast Guard.
The incident reminds us again in stark terms how dangerous maritime work can be. The Coast Guard responded fast, and a good Samaritan boat near by was helping too, as the stricken vessel struggled taking on water.
in a matter of minutes she sank, and with it her captain. Life for his family will never be the same. Today we honor all those who make their living on the sea.
