This is so sad. I really enjoyed watching him on the show. He went out fighting that's for sure. Thoughts and prayers with his family.
Whata shame. Not that he was the poster child for good health... but these guys need to stay awake so long on the water. Very sad.
Isn't that the same guy that a couple seasons back he was coughing up blood and stayed out on the water as long as he could? He was always so concerned about everyone and everything I can see why his life was ended early, anxiety and stress are killers for sure. He will be missed dearly by his family and friends and his viewers will surely miss him as well.
Bummer!
On a steel horse I ride, Im wanted DEAD or ALIVE. Sleep well long-liner.
I am very sad to hear about this..I love the show...sure won't be the same without him...RIP definitly have the family in my prayers.
