FV Northwestern’s captain is Edgar’s older brother Sig. Besides his cooking job, Edgar also works as a deckhand/engineer on the ship, which was built by Marco Shipyards in 1977. Currently, the crew is engaged in Red King Crab, Opilio crab, and Tanner Crab fishing, as well as in pot cod fishing. They also participated in Blue King Crab fishing in 2009.
Besides the Alaskan seafood, Edgar with his brothers endorsed a brand of Russian King Crab, which is selling at several discount chains including Walmart.
