I know the boat and captain well. The boat wasn't in the greatest of shape. The fishing industry is full of boat built in the late-70s and early 80s. That doesn't make them young anymore. Plus a lot of these captains are going broke because of very tight regulations. And a broke owner/captain makes for lean haul-out schedules.
Don't know a thing about this boat but would you insure some of those boats??? I am amazed some of them still float tied up at the dock!! Some are in very rough condition but still go out. The rust is what holds them together!

Each carrier is different in what they require (inspection etc)
