I have not seen the very last episode it has not been played in Canada. Josh, Jake of course their is no words to say to ease the pain. I do find comfort for the boys that he loved were not on the boat with those big waves never knew what their future might have been. Stay strong.

Comments: What comment can I make that will express my true sadness at the passing of Captain Phil Harris… He was my favorite Captain and I cheered him on in every episode of Deadliest Catch. I was and still am a huge fan of ‘Deadliest Catch’ but it was Captain Phil all the way for me. I loved the relationship he had with Jake & josh as each one of them joined his crew to walk in thier Father’s footsteps. The ups & downs of parenting for a father, were played out in an honest and sometimes hilarious way on board the Cornelia Marie and every viewer was invited to watch and learn as this strong bashful man took each son in turn from boy to man.
Of all the Captains, Phil shared his life with us in the rawest openest way possible and we watched in his successes, failures, hard times and good times. We walked with him through troubles with his crew and troubles with his ship, trouble with his sons and then trouble with his health and with his brave comeback to fight again and we couldn’t help but cheer for this giant of a man.
The ‘Deadliest Catch’ wont be so easy to watch now, I’ll miss Captain Phil every step of the way… But I hope it continues and we can watch as Jake and Josh take thier place at the helm and try to walk in such big shoes. I know that Jake and Josh will have the support and guidance of thier Father’s friends in becoming a fishing team. And like Sig & Edgar Hanson, Johnathan & Andy Hilstrand, Keith & Monty Colburn, Josh & Jake Harris can take thier place as Brothers fight and winning against the Bering Sea…
All my best wishes and prayers go to the Harris Family, his loved ones, his crew and the many millions of us fans that loved and respected the Captain of the Cornelia Marie, Captain Phil Harris.

Through the many years Phil spent on the Bering he succeeded in the Deadlist Job in the world and for that I salute him in his death. Capt Phil 1 Bering Sea 0. Good luck to the Crew on this sad occasion and may Phil’s devotion and character each go with you in your daily lives….ON and OFF the Ocean.
