FFAW-Unifor Monitoring Updates on Overdue Vessel, Hopeful for Safe Return

July 19, 2024

Members and staff of FFAW-Unifor are holding the crew of the Elite Navigator, their families, and the communities on the Northeast Coast in our constant thoughts as Coast Guard efforts are ongoing for the overdue vessel.

There is significant concern as weather conditions have made search and rescue efforts in the area difficult, and the Union is monitoring for updates on the vessel’s status. Fish harvesting remains one of the most uniquely dangerous professions, and our members take tremendous risks for their livelihood. We are praying that all return home safely.
