True sobriety is about "being ok" in the midst of chaos, or when you're alone with deafening quiet...and everything in between! ✌️

Tough days Captain Jake and the boys.Bigballs

[@iAmIronMan0605]

Just good editing

[@randystolz]

Why was no one on anchor watch in the wheelhouse?? With that wind... That's a big oops... Lucky another boat had an attentive watch-stander

You have no idea what your talking about.

​@jase4270 What makes you say that? Anchor watch is a thing

[@thormidthagahast8914]

The old anchor line snapped excuse to tie up 2 days early. Nice.

[@joncozzi1701]

You can set a radar or GPS alarm to you when you are dragging. Should in that weather also have a guy on anchor watch in the wheel house

How many years did you fish the for crab in alaska?

[@joncozzi1701]

@@edmeds1336 well zero in Alaska but the technology is the same everywhere, so I fail to see the relevance of your question.

[@edmeds1336]

@@joncozzi1701 do you crab fish in alaska? No you dont.

[@joncozzi1701]

@@edmeds1336 ok I already said zero, I have not crab fished in Alaska. Most people haven’t. We were talking about anchor alarms, or having someone on anchor watch. It is my personal opinion, a person could know about these things without having crab fished in Alaska. Maybe you could explain why this is not true. Perhaps I Will learn from you, the Alaska crab fishermen. Thanks in advance for the explanation, have a nice evening.

​@@edmeds1336crab boats in Alaska aren't the only boats with anchors

[@norm4966]

You should all ways have some one on watch. I work as some sort of inter in a ship to see what it was like and even when dock we had a person on watch because you know, a robe can broke, generator can over heat, ship next to you can catch fire, some drunk guy can try to come about(yes it did happen)...

[@mateyko555]

no anchor alarm or watch lol

[@James-vn8zb]

They don't even set any kind of anchor/drift alarm?

[@bend8353]

Because they are supposed to have someone on watch

[@jase4270]

No Saga for Jake no more he has a nice new boat

[@Cornell851]

And this guy is talking about buying another boat 😮

[@4betjam604]

Lenny ( the majority boat owner) is having legal issues..whatever that means…also crab seasons are cancelled which is why they are in Norway ….so unlikely he’s buying another boat.

[@rampage3337]

@@4betjam604 i think he already bought it

[@johnwinner8511]

How much is that chain and anchor worth he lost ?

[@1solosoldier]

I would say upwards to around 50,000... if he even lost it... this show is scripted for tv

[@dancaptain2055]

@@1solosoldierabsolutely it is. And those Cat diesels would of fired up a lot sooner before especially being ran not long before

[@ryans413]

How dose an anchor snap isn’t it all heavy chain.

[@James-vn8zb]

No. Watch again. It's chain, then steel cable.

[@rampage3337]

it's steel cable in the end but even a heavy chain can snapp. there are allot of forces in play during rough seas.

[@HerDyingVoice]

Editors really put in a fake alarm lol there's no alarm that tells you if an anchor snapped or not.

[@maxolejniczak975]

Alarm was for shallow water

[@Phil_Theekrit]

Yeah it’s a shallow water alarm

[@jasonnester9514]

Why didn’t they just dock to begin with

[@user-vy4xx2qp3d]

Rookie mistake

[@edmeds1336]

I bet you would do better than all the captains on the bering sea huh? Goofball

[@user-vy4xx2qp3d]

It's not rocket science @@edmeds1336

[@JeepinBoon]

Calling bullshit. One anchor, dry rusty cable with no fresh marks. Electric starter. Makes good drama, not real.

[@1solosoldier]

Made for tv scripted show

[@JeepinBoon]

@@1solosoldier I gotta say what they actually do and actually produce is real. It's like WWF wrestling. The falls through the table/ladder, chokeslams, and barbed wire or thumbtacks. 100% real. Carnie freakshow walking on broken glass bottles, 100% real.These guys crab hauls, 100% real.

[@BillyT886]

@@JeepinBoonof course they do. But you would be dumb to th8nk they don’t make certain thing either happen, or edit to look as though it happen for dramatic effect

[@1solosoldier]

@@JeepinBoon I wouldn't have used that analogy, but ok... Truth is, it's reality scripted tv... It used to be more realistic in the first few years, but after awhile you can't keep showing the same thing on the Deadliest Catch over and over, so the producers have the crew basically make you believe that something happened that didn't. I think the show is painting a picture of things that can possibly go wrong while out to sea. The actual season for that particular 🦀 species only last 3 or 4 weeks but they make you believe there fishing for month's.

[@JeepinBoon]

@@1solosoldier You're 100% correct. I do miss the good old days of Deadliest Catch. I service a tug (on call 24/7/365) that crosses a river and there are three anchors aboard. I love every trip there. I wish I could live on that boat.
