Alaska Fishing Boat For Sale

Selling the ship for scrap might be a good option -- thought it won't generate much money -- because it could keep the ship from falling into the wrong hands again, Barkeley said. It could also send a message to other maritime scofflaws that the risk of illegal fishing is great. The Bangun was a repeat offender, he said. "Not all of these cases end up being prosecuted in court, but the Bangun Perkasa, for example, was spotted doing this type of fishing by the Canadian Air Force more than once in the last four or five years, and the resources were just not available at the time to get a boat out on the ocean and board the vessel," he told the radio station. "So, we have every reason to think that the Bangun Perkasa has been fishing illegally like this many more times than just this once, when it was caught."
