Fishing Vessel: CORNELIA MARIE
This season marks Capt. Phil Harris' 16th year with the
Cornelia Marie and his 30th year in the crab-fishing industry. As a co-owner, Phil was responsible for making the
Cornelia Marie one of the top-performing boats last season, despite some major mechanical difficulties.
Phil, who resides in Seattle, will be joined this season by his two sons: Jake (who celebrated his 21st birthday while out at sea during king crab season) returns for his third year as a deckhand, this time earning full share. Taking his place on board as the greenhorn this year is his older brother Josh (23). This is Josh's first season crab fishing on the Bering Sea, and Jake is eager to show him the ropes.
Joining the Harris clan is First Mate Roger Jensen, who has been Phil's loyal and trusted deckhand since 1988; Deckhand Dave Millman, who is returning after suffering an injury last opilio season; and Engineer Mark Anderson, new to the
Cornelia Marie this season.
