<p>I was also curious about the fishing boat… I was talking with a friend when the CO was explaining the situation so all I knew is that the Nimitz tried to save the boat and took the fishermen on board. I didn’t know the circumstances under which the boat started sinking. When they asked to be reimburse I assumed the Navy must have had something to do with it, but I guess they didn’t? Nimitz sent a crew out to help them and they ask to get money for the boat?</p>
