      Not sure how that works as it was impounded, if it is sold will he get his share of the sale, lots going on here that we will never know, which is how it should be, it is none of our business. But yell too bad he could not have bought Lenny out and got the boat for himself.

    Fukushima nuclear power plant melted down in 2011, since then, it has been leaking contaminated fluids into the ocean non - stop. California has shut down its commercial and sport salmon seasons for the last 2 years, king and Ophelia crab stocks have diminished,
    The ocean is dying. I live in Monterey California and am a retired commercial fisherman ,
    The ocean is polluted and the industry is dying. Many boats are for sale….
