Facts I worked on 3 tugs boats as a deckhand and it’s no joke. The hardest job I ever did in my life! You literally have people’s life’s in your hands... so much stuff you have to remember and do correctly or you can get killed or kill everybody easily! Like the deckhands are the what keep the boat moving. The captains wouldn’t be shit without deckhands! Ask anybody that works on boats and they’ll tell you the same thing!
@@kolbyorozco9494 Just one of the many fascinating aspects of what it takes to run the whole operation. Multi tasking on a level unmatched to other industries, and having to do it often while having sleep deprived fatigue, with a side of having to work in the worst possible weather conditions for any occupation. It works on so many levels, making it a perfect candidate for a reality tv show. Ratings gold for a tv executive.
Aye he is Scottish not Irish but the two can be hard to distinguish between for the untrained ear, I say Scottish are more floaty and not so singing as Irish :)
Keith has the same problem Jake had on the Saga clutch failed on the generators Wizard is dead in the water. This is always the worst case scenario Trident lost 12 vessels all of them were mentioned on Deadliest Catch and the cause of their sinking was fire. The two most recent sinkings were Western Venture and Raven both vessels had clutch problems and burned to death. Coast Guard and two crab boats had to extract the crews before the vessels sank.
So glad these guys had the replacement parts on hand and the knowledge to fix that pain in the a_s problem. I understand many ships go down under similar equipment failures….lose hydraulic pressure to steer the boat can cause a ship to sink
I wish you could be an engineer on a crab boat without having to double as a deck hand. Nevermind how stressful it'd be fixing that I'd love to work on something like that out at sea in the weather.
I used to commercial fish out of Kodiak and I knew of several crab boats that just had a dedicated engineer/cook. But those were really big boats, double mains and double gen-sets. As the engineer, you were expected to maintain everything in the engine room clean enough to eat off of, so constant wipe downs and monitoring everything. You had to be good at not just engines, but welding, electrical, plumbing, fabrication, you name it.....and up in the galley, you better be a good fucking cook too.
@@blaineedwards8078 currently I work at a ski resort cook in the winter maintenance in the summer. Just got done brazing new chair clamps onto the cable, in the air. I think I fit the bill maybe 😂🤔
@@alec4672 That is good, you are in the right direction. However, maintenance is one thing....but are you an actual mechanic? Can you tear down a bigass Caterpillar C32, run diagnostics, troubleshoot, are familiar with hydraulics, pump systems, commercial battery grids, refrigeration, heat exchangers, forced air induction, reduction gear....just to name a few? There will also be many times that you will be required to perform your duties during severe weather while out at sea, high winds and hellacious waves battering your vessel relentlessly while you struggle just to stay on your feet. Turning wrenches in those conditions is no fucking picnic....but that is your job. When shit breaks down (and it will) you have to fix it regardless of how shitty the weather is.....your life and the lives of your crewmates depends on it.
@@alec4672 sign up for MSC (military sealift command) they'll train you to be an engineer on a ship. You aren't forced to commit to it for multiple years like in the actual military. Can make pretty damn good money because tjere is nothing to do so you just work a bunch of overtime out of boredom. Some people walk away wmaking 90k after a year at the lowest level position.
Keith is a dope. Worst captain in the fleet. He just left his chair in this storm. He jeopardized the men and the boat. Not to mention how he treats his brother and the whole crew. Well except Freddy the drunken deck hand.
A fire is important... But in the engine room it's all hands on deck... The for could be from the engine or hydraulic pumps or generators... If hydraulics are down, rudders can't move, engines are down steering is limited and in rough waters it's like nothing and if generators go down, no lighting to see where you're goin or anything..
If they can afford maintenance, having mechanics and techs go over everything and grease what needs to be greased takes money and if they had a lean year, they might be able to put things off and depend on luck nothing happens.
everybody hates on freddy for drug use or w.e.. but lets see u go do the job and not have some issues? freddy is so fucking valuable for his toughness and more importantly the morale he brings to the crew..
I know its 7 months later but the electrical generator is on the other end of that engine, If the engine has to be shut down while they work on the clutch for the hydraulic system then they have no pumps either.
@@chucknasty8090 dear god really? Were you born feet first? Yes...yes i think oceans are fake.🙄 This was filmed in a bathtub. Please rent a helicopter and get the kobe Bryant special.
I know he’s the captain but if that was my boat i’d be in there like a dirty shirt on laundry day getting that fixed... not that the guys working on it aren’t capable as I’m sure they are but the more help the better I think...
His responsibility is the safety of the crew and ship above all. Him being down there means he's not navigating the ship and guiding her through the weather, which would dereliction of duty. He has to trust his crew like they trust him.
When Captains land on the crab do they ever pick up 1 pot then unload the crab and bait it up and drop ir again in the same spot then move to the next pot? If I landed on the crab I would do that for the entire string.
They usually set a "string" which is several pots connected by one rope. So they complete recovering the string first, and then replace a new string before moving on.
The short answer is yes. If the numbers of crab warrant it, the pots are rebaited and set back. You set the gear in such a manner that you can try to determine if the biomass is moving and if so, in which direction. You can then move your gear to where you think they are going. Hope that makes sense.
@@battaglino77 WHAT? The fishing you see here is single pot fishing - each pot has its own line and bouys, the pots are not connected to each other. You are describing long-lining with pot gear which is usually reserved for super deep water fishing for Golden Crab.
Assaulting greenhorns and cameramen doesn't get you much respect. Im assuming that's why very few like him, including most of the other skippers. I don't hate him but I think his attitude is bs.
J J yeah your right about that I couldn’t believe that cameraman didn’t do nothing back I would have lost it no one does that to me without getting something back
I dont get Why dose it take 3 days for a car dealership to tell me what i already know whats wrong with my car but it takes 30 seconds to a minute for these guys to get off deck go figure out whats wrong and get the engine off tf
I'm am ex infantryman that has served in Iraq ect but I sit here and watch these guys and think wow they truly are hardcore , take my Hatt off too these guys , I love this programme
I give these guys a lot of credit for having to know everything about the boat to keep it running.
Specially to basically disable and resemble the motor during a storm

Just the memory of Hillstrand sending this guy to the deck always makes me chuckle.

Crab dance😂💀 0:55
"21 crab. That's not even enough for dinner."
That would rather explain Keith's size.
All theme drugs make Freddie seem great
Thx from Hamilton Ontario Canada
Omgggg busted hydraulics...
No crabs AND THAT STORM😓
Wrench all night, crab all day
Captain looks like he’s about to stick a Luger in his mouth.🤯💀
5:30 it's impossible to keep deckhands from painting things that shouldn't be painted.
Can't believe they were using hand wrenchs and not power tools.
i wanna know how they got a cam on a crab outside of the boat, and more importantly how much are they paying him?

How about doing regular maintenance ?🤯

Damn that part is that serious basically stop all work
Karma for the bully boy.

Crab pumps are electric I do believe. So a CAT engine with a hydraulic pump head and no Generator head should have no effect on pumps.
I know its 7 months later but the electrical generator is on the other end of that engine, If the engine has to be shut down while they work on the clutch for the hydraulic system then they have no pumps either.
@@robertmills6497 their pumps should still run off the main genset.
Couldn't of happen to a worst person.
You would think the ocean water would put the fire, but not so simple.
"We need to beat the weather". It looks like they're in the middle of weather.
solution for the problem: spitting out the window
Them guys on deck work hard
The bully boy Keith gets his just deserts!!

Do they not have a dedicated engineer or does that cut into profits?

Why not just fire up the backup you showed off on your tour off the boat . I guess they wanted to show some drama

Love to see Keith the walrus fail at crabbing he a bully n don't deserve to be a captain. I would love this show more if he wasn't on it.
Next time don’t hide your heroin in the hydraulics Keith. How’s the spinal infection which is a result of substantial drug use.

Why the heck did they use a Scotsman for a narrator? It doesn’t go with the show.

It works well for the UK audience.. I’ve heard the American... I find him hard work to listen to.

Serves him right he is a bully and he is the only crab captain I dislike so much.
Now we know who ate all the pies!!!
