Was it actually caught in alabama waters? Or just the boat is out of the marina in Alabama I'm assuming? I mean I'm asssuming it wasn't caught in Alabama state waters either way? Just seems kinda odd I guess for a pelagic caught no where close to the state to be a state record. Hell of a fish either way.
I was at the marina the other day and there was a guy with a 40ish foot sportfisher a very nice boat but nothing extravagent and he was telling us he heard a knock and had his mechanic out and it was going to be a $80,000 rebuild. He was pissed because he was just down for another maintenance item for a couple of months, and he said the money doesn't matter as its a hobby he loves its that he has to spend the money for another couple months being boatless again.

Probably caught wayyyyyy closer to Venice than orange Beach if I had to guess.
Your average dude can't comprehend the costs required to own one of those boats and keep it operational. It's a whole different class of wealth required.

I mated on a 125 Fedship for several years.
We could flush money down the toilet and it didn't matter and nobody noticed...

I have a tiny single engine 25'bay boat and will be working on it all day tomorrow just pouring money into it.
I dont even want to imagine the cost of maintain a huge boat like that

No..
Fedship. Google Fedship Orion and you'll see it.
Owner was the first guy to ever kill a Bighorn Sheep with a Bow.
Russ Saragusa...not sure if I spelled the name correct.

A grander in the US??? Rare anywhere in the world. I think there are about 20 a year caught globally. The first one was in 1930.
