It is already hard to hire our staff at the best of times. Often, staff are hired up to two weeks before the required time. For example, this year, there is a risk of area closures because the whales are heading out to sea later. There is a risk of not making the quotas. It's hard to assess.
In recent years, many guys have had to release 25 tons of crab back into the water. If we are also unlucky enough to have a mechanical breakdown on top of it, we can barely make up the shortfall because of the number of closed areas. It's hard to put an exact figure on it, but the losses can be huge for some people.
