A boat featured on Deadliest Catch has capsized, killing three fishermen in Newport, Oregon.
The fatal incident was witnessed by a Coast Guard crew who reportedly carried out a seach and rescue mission.
A friend of Porter told local news he had planned for the voyage to be his last on this particular boat because he found the crew to be “inexperienced”.
The three men killed have been identified as Joshua Porter, 50, James lacy, 48 and Stephen Biernacki, 50.
