Yeah. That's why they have such a modern fleet



I wouldn't argue that there is big money involved, but big money does not necessarily equal big profit. I would imagine that their operating costs are enormous. Fuel and upkeep for their boats, labor, bait loss and damage caused by sea lions; it all adds up. Just like the sportfishing boats, they are reluctant to pass on all of their additional fuel costs to the customers. The higher fuel prices are also limiting the number of trips made by private boaters; and that directly impacts their revenue.
