Welcome to the Official Captain Phil Harris Fan Web Site. We have recently revised the entire site to make this a fun and friendly way to pay our respects to the late Captain Phil of the Deadliest Catch. His memory will live on in the minds of the fans and through the footage of the Discovery Channel's highest rated show. In the immortal words of Captain Phil, "You can make things happen, watch things happen or wonder what the F$$K happened....we're making things happen"
To all our friends and fans in the Capt Phil Nation we want to thank you for your support in the effort to raise money for Josh and Jake to purchase the F/V Cornelia Marie. It meant so much that our fans were willing to help out and see Capt. Phil's sons continue the long family tradition. But today we are happy to say that the co-owner of the Cornelia Marie, Cornelia herself has choosen not to sell her interest in the boat. So Josh & Jake will become co-owners with Cornelia to the fishing vessel made famous on Deadliest Catch. Now a special thank you goes out to Tim Harrison for his effort to rally together all our fans to help Josh and Jake. On behalf of Phil's sons it means so very much that people like Tim are out there offering their support. So thanks again Tim. We look forward to meeting you and thanking you in person someday soon.

Captain's Reserve Coffee Update
Hey everybody, this is Russ Herriott, one of the owners of Captain’s Reserve Coffee along with Josh and Jake Harris. Josh and I are in Temecula, California right now and we are wrapping up after Josh’s Pajama Party last night. Which by the way was a smashing success. Over 700 crazy fans and friends dressed in their favorite PJ’s, loungewear and lingerie were in attendance at Baily’s Restaurant and Nightclub in Old Town Temecula. But more on that later.
Let me address the coffee issue for a moment. Drama Drama Drama…Captain’s Reserve Coffee has NOT shipped a single bag of coffee to date. And we have also NOT collected a single dime from anyone. We have all the orders on file and I have personally spoken with many of our customers and outlined what is going on. I have explained too many of you that the success of the new website which now has over 4,800 members, has literally overwhelmed us with orders. Coupled with a few other setbacks that were just out of our control really slowed us down. We are back at full strength and will be getting all our customers taken care of to the highest level of their satisfaction.
As many of you know, Captain’s Reserve was owned by Capt. Phil Harris, his two sons and I. When Phil passed away we have had to deal with his estate on all matters pertaining to the coffee business. We have had many delays in moving forward which has led to a slow and tedious process. Josh and Jake are now the majority owners of the company and as of last week we finalized this transfer through the courts thanks to the tremendous legal styling’s of our amazing attorney Mr. Edward Ritter.
Now I have been getting calls from our loyal fans out there in the Capt. Phil Nation that there seems to be some negative comments floating around. On behalf of Josh and Jake, I am very sorry for the delays some of you have had to encounter in receiving your coffee. But rest assured product will be shipping to our fans and friends. I do hope you except our apologies and Josh, Jake and I hope that we keep you as a customer for many years to come.
To all those customers we have lost, we completely understand how you feel and we hope you give us another shot to win your business sometime in the near future.
Sincerely,
Russ Herriott President & CEO Captain's Reserve Coffee
The Memory of Captain Phil Harris will live on in the hearts and minds of his friends and family. (Photo left to right: Jake Harris, Josh Harris, Phil Harris and Russ Herriott)
This new fan web site is the only authorized and officially supported site dedicated to Captain Phil. Sponsored by Captain's Reserve Coffee a company started by Phil himself will continue on with Russ Herriott and Josh and Jake Harris at the helm.
It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to our dad - Captain Phil Harris. Dad has always been a fighter and continued to be until the end. For us and the crew, he was someone who never backed down. We will remember and celebrate that strength. Thanks to everyone for their thoughts and prayers.
~ Jake and Josh Harris
