You may not see him but he's there
Behind the window, in his favorite chair

The Cornelia Marie and the crew work together
without speaking

They know, they have many hours to go
before they can rest

These are the last of them
the last of the men who catch our supper
who face the wind and the cold and the unknown

Together with each other they go

Happy Birthday Capt. Phil
(December 19, 1956 -- February 9, 2010)

  • What a great Birthday Tribute. Gave me chills.  Sail away captain Phil

  • It's great seeing the video of the Cornelia Marie with Phil behind the wheel. Morgan Howard posted a wonderful poem in honor of a great guy. It's fitting that we think of Phil just behind that window still sailing this boat. I'm sure his presence is still very strong in that wheelhouse. Sail on, Captain Phil...
