The Icy Mist

I was very sad to read about the loss of the F/V Icy Mist the other day. I'm glad everyone got off safely. Big "High Fives" to the Kodiak Coast Guard Air Rescue group. You just can't say enough about these people. Their skill and dedication to all of us who venture out onto the water is legendary. My heart goes out to Bob & Jen and what they are going through right now. A boat isn't just a chunk of steel, it's the Blood, Sweat and Tears of a life time of dedication and sacrifice. The good ones like the Icy Mist are lovingly cared for by their owners and it always shows. She's the biggest, baddest and most beautiful limit Hansen there is. I know Bob and Jen will get through this, because there's just no quit in people of that quality and caliber. It just really sucks when crap like this happens to really good people.
