Good idea but fortunately he’s not shady like the company that employed him who got him into this situation in the first place. But i’d have to admit, at this point, it might be tempting...
That is the best plan of action.
This isn’t much different than what happened in the trucking industry when a major company went out of business a few years ago.

Drop anchor. Ride the lifeboats in.
“”Earlier this week, Niaz was honored by Lloyds of London, which underwrites shipping throughout the world, as the 2013 Seafarer of the Year.””
WOW! That’s a big help to the Captain and his crew. I read the article and I still don’t know what’s happened to the ship and crew.
