Exegesis
The destination eis to ploion {εἰς τὸ πλοῖον | eis to ploion} and the temporal frame en ekeine te nykti {ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ νυκτὶ | en e-keí-nē tē núk-ti} locate the action precisely, while epiasan ouden {ἐπίασαν οὐδέν | e-pí-a-san ou-dén} closes the verse with emphatic total failure. English is therefore rendered with natural past narration that preserves the Greek sequence, the intent structure, and the force of the final negation.
In context — John 21:3
