I lived here when I was a kid, my dad was mayor for some time and seeing this video choked me up making me realize just how much I miss it. I can't thank you enough for making this video. You've no idea how much it means to me. Thank you immensely and I hope to see more from Dutch Harbor. Sincerely, Kevin

Wow! Great to hear this video made your day! It's an interesting place. My first visit was in January 2004 and the next was 2019. 15 years in between but the place seemed almost the same. Hopefully you can get back up there soon.

Say what you want about any other so called reality tv - BS? Probaby - But - watch one or a few - that aint no odinary show and no BS - you dont get any more real than out on the Bering Sea - theres no hollywood effects nor doubles - its fishing and the Bering for real and unforgiving - and you obviousy never been to Dutch nor fished or offshore high latitudes - there's a reason- a few- that fishing in the Bering is one the toughest most dangerous jobs on the planet - I fished a few seasons longlining and few as fisheries observer - and it was no mean feat for the camera guys to ride along especially rough winter weather and took the same chance as crew that if shit hits the fan - you might not come back ...and thats no BS - so you might want reevaluate your BS opinion about something you dont have a clue - watch a show or two and go up hike the pilĺboxes or better yet go out as a processor and get to know the "BS" up close 😏

Don't know what it is about this place, I spent a day walking around from a cruise ship a year or two ago. Why am I looking at videos to relive the experience? There is something special about feeling so remote from the rest of the world, you feel like you could escape here from the tsunami of crap that is that is engulfing the western world.
