    Hey man. You probably don't remember me but I stayed at the Chinook shores lodge and went fishing with a friend of mine a couple of years ago. I just wanted to say that you inspired me and I am now a deckhand in homer alaska. Thank you very much.

    You added salt from a can to water to boil the crabs? You just came out of the ocean! Call me crazy but we just use sea water to boil them.

    "The Puget Sound king crab is known to live in the subtidal regions along coasts which means it is part of a diverse community of marine life that interact with each other to create a dynamic environment. This species is in a position where it must catch prey and avoid predators in order to survive and thrive. L. mandtii is known to consume sea urchins and other invertebrates, such as starfish and sea cucumbers.[1] By controlling sea urchin populations, more seaweed and kelp will show up since there will be less invertebrates that consume those primary producers. In turn, the seaweeds and kelp conceal the Puget Sound king crab from its predators in the sky, such as pelicans and other birds that consume marine life. This is an example of a changing cycle within this community because a disturbance or change any species population could alter the rest of the community altogether. L. mandtii is becoming more uncommon in the areas it used to thrive in. Part of this is due to increased use of fishing nets of different sizes which the crabs get caught in and brought up.[6] The Puget Sound king crab has been put on the protected species list by the Washington Fish and Wildlife Department which means it is not advised to catch and collect this species.

    Great video! Never stand on that little shelf next to the transom. It’s not designed to hold you and you could easily fall into the water and the motor prop will chew you up if you are in reverse. I am thinking this is likely one of the first times you have operated a small boat like that.

"Because that's how we do", here in WA State. (Besides, it's sea salt. According to people that make such claims, sea salt is better for you)
