the Alaskan Ranger went down with 45 people. 7 perished. the rest were saved by other boats and the coast guard. it was a dragger/processor. bad scene. the captain was a hero. made sure all his guys got off before he did. i believe that happened in December, not far from where these guys fish.

Alaskan Ranger was lost in March '08. King crab season for 2008 began in October.

Was probably the Katmai.
