Touching episode last night, especially the last exchange between Josh and his dad before he left.

Wow sad episode for sure. Seems like is always how it is, just when yup think someone has made a huge positive step forward things take a major turn for the worst. I really hope the boys are able to pull things together and buy the CM. I didn't really understand (and they didn't really explain) the financial arrangement on the ownership of the boat

Thanks! The Internet never fails to impress. So are they trying to buy the boat outright or just get Phil's share from the estate?

Most likely a combination of both. Chances are the boat has a loan on it and that would have to be assumed as I really doubt any of the captains on the show own the boats outright.

From the Discovery Channel web-site: "Crab vessels cost several million dollars to build, and tens of thousands of dollars to operate annually."
