@ronaldreika You get seasick because your eyes and your inner ears disagree with each other. IF you get sick, you just have to suck it up until it goes away.
As to manliness - Nelson got seasick. 'Nuff said.
All of you that commented on sea sickness are dead wrong. It has nothing to do with bravado or manliness. I have seen old salts with years of sea time get seasick. And also some of the roughest toughest men you would ever face. Pussies? I think not. Some of you are plain and simple...Idiots!
@ronaldreika not everyone gets it, i never had one sick feeling at sea, that had anything to do with motion that is lol, too much alcohol is another matter.. :x
Actually, the risk involved is a huge factor in why so many species of sea life are so expensive as food. You can't purchase a trustworthy ship for less than half a million, then you need to pay high risk insurance on that ship and on deckhands. Add in local, state and federal business taxes on your profit.... Hell, I wouldn't invest my fortune and risk my life for a silly $30 an hour.
Ah but in the end the only reason why they can afford it is because they are amongst the very few people who do this. If 100x the number of fisherman caught crab(assuming there are that many more to catch), then there would be 100x (give or take) more supply, and people would pay less for the food. At some point the price would drop so low that fisherman wouldnt be able to afford the business, so theyd drop out. Thus giving the FEW a chance to make any real money.
Not to say your wrong in that the price we pay NOW, isnt affected by the cost to operate the crab business. Dont misunderstand me. The only reason why they can charge this much however, is because the market prices are such that they dont go bankrupt. Its the same issue w/ farming. The more farmers, the lower the cost of food...too much supply, so it soon becomes impossible for some farmers to make a profit. This is happening to many farmers now.
the caneries buy the crab from the boats at a price then they sell it to grocery stores.. resturaunts etc at a much higher price then those people sell it to the consumer for an even higher price.. so we take all the risk and get ripped!
i know its honestly nothing compared to the bering sea, but sometimes fishing on lake erie in a 27ft boat on days that are 7-10ft waves can be pretty crazy. especially about 3 yrs ago when we were 5 miles out and seen 3 water spouts at once its pretty freaky
they wear tons of gear under thier rain gear, and they dont stay out for 48 hours straight, th tv show makes it seem like they do, but they get breaks to warm up and eat
Why not have the superstructure placed forward, offering protection to an after-deck? I guess the skipper's nightmare is finding that when all the water clears off the deck, that it has taken all the crew with it. Frightening workplace. I've been in a pretty awesome foundry which dropped 16 tons of liquid malleable iron through a hole which burned through an induction furnace. But this is even more dangerous.
The Northwestern has that configuration because it was built for fishing, many other ships in the series, like Wizard, are converted tankers or haulers and not really made for fishing.
Interesting. Lobster and crab vessels seem to differ a lot in design around the World, even though they do a similar job. Maybe this is because of sea conditions/ how far they have to venture from port. I'm not a seafarer of any kind so I'm commenting from ignorance (!) but I'd prefer not to have to work on such an open deck as this one. Those who do have my deepest respect!
the northwestern was originally a smaller ship, and that design is common among those types of ships, i can see them being tankers persay, they are WAY too small, the corneila marie is the biggest i think at 150ish feet
Well the concept of tankers have changed during years, Wizard was built for the US Navy in 1945 as a oiler with a capacity of 240 000 gallons which explains the layout of the ship.
Everytime I eat crab I think of those brave dudes out there making it possible for me to do so. We should never take what these men do for granted. Man we pay entertainers handsome fees to do NOTHING for us. lol...where's our heads at???
THE REAL REASON for more violent waves: The moon is a satellite that also controls the behaviour of our oceans and seas. Space is under attack because of all the "garbage" man hauls out to space. If the moon is messed with and moved even an inch off its orbital pattern, we would experience massive tidal waves. Another reason is what this docum. stated. Our oceans and seas are drying up causing them to be more shallow than ever before. Greenhouse gases and global warming. Just the beginning.
no one seems to realize that it takes 10+ hours to get from string to string, and to port and back, has to take a good 3+ minutes to get the trap on board, and everything is lifted by cranes...
well mageac i think you're the one who doesn't seem to get it.....it took us no longer than an hour at the LONGEST to get from string to string.........and you don't go to port until you've got crab (which may be a week or longer).... stacking pots is not entirely done by cranes....in fact this job is probably one of the most physically and mentally challenging jobs you could ever do
well i have snow crab fished on the east coast , we load, stack, and lauch the pots by hand, and it was quite frankly one of the easier fishing jobs i have done.
the season lasts for about 3 months...
ESPECIALLY when you consider when you consider prices and stock are much much lower here
I happened to watch Deadliest Catch once because I was bored..and am addicited to since. I cant believe these men work in so rough conditions and how many have drowned :(
Very interesting show never knew that fishermen job is so dangerous.I thought crabs and fishes are near coast :o)
This is a very, very dangerous job. I do think there are jobs equally dangerous. My brother was killed working in an iron foundry. You should see all the hazards there.
I hope you don't eat fish Liberals... We live near a small port and alot of friends including myself have lost brothers, fathers, sons etc. all through having fishing as part of your everyday livelyhood. don't like the show? don't bother to leave a message....
You are the best Sig! If you need a cook, even tho I am female and supposedly "bad luck" on a boat, I am willing and able. God Bless you and the guys!
Love the show have so much repect for those dudes keep up the good work guys i go out and jet ski in 30ft wave thats scary so i cant even imagine what those dudes are going through tell that dude silentwolf go and get a life.........
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this show is fuckin STUPID thats why I quit watching it....you honestly think this shit is dangerous?? LMFAO
The only thing dangerous are the criminals that work on these boats....have you noticed one of them always has a court date they have to get back to the mainland for?? Thats because these fisherman are fuckin heroin users and losers
okay then "silentwolf928" lets see you go out onto the sea for like 4 months straight with like 4 hours in 2 days, and even still work for the whole day out in Alaska.I bet you can't do shit out there, not saying I can. But don't be a hypocrite, go out there and prove use wrong why dont yeah! If you die out there, or loose a couple toes, haha, i guess it is pretty though no aint it BUDDY?!?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
"deadliest catch???"....I wager forty pieces of eight that it isnt!!!.........I once hunted the "Great Kraken" from the Cape of Good Hope.....to the Black Bay at The World's End....I lost my ship, my crew, two legs, an eye and one arm!....y-aaaaargh!!!
