Welcome Aboard!
Captain Josh Harris was the person in charge of hiring the crew during the seasons of The Cornelia, and he hired Maria. Maria was the perfect fit because she is from Alaska and loves fishing. Fans around the world were eager to see what she had to add to the colorful cast.

There were several things that drew Josh to Maria. Maria’s knowledge was one of the main selling aspects, he said. Josh admired her work ethic and wanted her on board to help speed up the manufacturing line. Josh felt that Maria had several more years of experience than the rest of the crew members, and it would be an invaluable asset to the boat.
