    Making $30k-$50k in 3 or 4 weeks is a good motivator

    I have watched a few episodes of Deadliest Catch the Dungeon. It's a spinoff about Dungeness crab fishing off the coast and Oregon. The weather and seas aren't as bad as the Beringer Sea but still pretty hairy and the dungeness boats are smaller than the king crab boats. From only watching a few episodes it seems like there are more weather caused fatal accidents than there are in Alaska.

    They’re tough nuts. Last night one captain stitched a mangled finger at the dinner table while the rest of the crew watched, as they ate their meal. lol

    when phil died neither josh or the crackhead one took any knowledge from their dad to captain a boat. josh was scared so he got that dude casey to mentor him and pretty much captain the boat. now josh is comfortable i suppose the couple episodes i saw and they seem to be enjoying the partnership. not sure how long that will last given the costs of the boat.

    also i wondered the same. must be those suits. they shouldnt be fishing with ice on the deck however. someone will go in.
