Do they have an exit strategy (E.g., a buyer), or will they end up like the fish in bags in Finding Nemo? -- (edited)

I assume your original question was provoked by wanting to answer the "what now?" aspect.
In absence of an exit strategy, I offer:
1) Basically what the board covered; faced with mounting difficulties, inability to dock for maintenance and resupply, they end up on the drift and eventually have to give up. Their adventure lasts only a few months.
Or,
2) They find some way to continue to operate the vessel, maybe by impersonating a sister ship or some other tactic. This allows them to perform maintenance, resupply, etc. They can't operate as a legitimate business, but they find a way to use the ship and the crew advantageously at various ports to help people and keep the boat afloat. Their adventure lasts several seasons on CBS and is called "SeaWolf".
Or,
3) In international waters, they raft up with other reappropriated ships and form a colony. Over time, the colony grows and becomes a solarpunk climate refuge. A near-mythical place of serenity and innovation as the rest of the world burns. Eventually they develop systems to help the rest of the world get back to a calm situation. Their adventure lasts a lifetime.
Or,
4) Hunted by the government, they survive as sailors of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire .. The Sea Team. (I know this sounds like #2, but the government involvement and red stripe would make it a totally different show.)
