If you watch the series and see how fast Jake ages that should tell you how stressful it is to be a captain.. Rest in peace to all the men of the lost F/V Destination..

[@eincan1313]

So true. I watched the earlier seasons and just when he got to be a captain. Saw this clip and wow did he age. Tough life and has to be brutal on their health.

[@laurab391]

Yes, this job ages people very quickly.

[@I8ITSK8N]

@@laurab391 one of the most stressful jobs ever is being the captain. He solely responsible for every life on board one of the most dangerous of working conditions. As you can see it really takes a toll.

[@austinwiseman3186]

Yes but he also looks clean. Like many Jake battled the demons but it looks like he’s coming out on the winning side

[@2centschange]

Sig absolutely made the right call here. In his state, he would have been a danger to himself and his crew if he stayed with how distracted he would have been. Sometimes the best thing is to walk away when you're not in the right place.

[@BackcountrywithShaughn]

The look on Sig's face when he said he felt like he was on borrowed time is brutal. Like a 1000 yard stare, shell-shocked and a hundred other references all rolled up into one~

[@bennitori4]

This isn't even the first friend he's lost. Phil, the Scandies Rose, the Destination. And those are just the ones I know of. There are probably others that got lost that we didn't see or hear about. This guy has lost a lot of people who left before their time. Alaskan fishers are no stranger to death. Alaskan captains are no stranger to death, and have to fight it off for the sake of their crew. And an older captain is certainly well acquainted with death, staring it right in the eye, and seeing what happens to those who make a mistake at the exact wrong time.

[@shanewoods1980]

Edger is the type of person that the look on his face tells you everything you need to know without saying a word

[@cleech74]

Tragedy aside, the shot where we see Edgar, then cuts to the angle where he’s looking out at the rough seas they’re in, literally, and figuratively. The wind is swirling & howling all around them. It really captures the emotions they’re experiencing, having just had one of their extended fishing family members get swallowed up by the sea. A reminder of just how dangerous that job can be.

[@shanewoods1980]

@@cleech74 you are correct! It was Edgar and his look that made me realize how horrible that situation was. I’m an Iraq/ Afghanistan combat veteran with 7 deployments and a truck driver stateside and that look he had I’ve seen before.

[@cleech74]

@@shanewoods1980 Oh, wow. Can’t imagine how difficult that is to deal with. Cheers, for your service. Question. Have you seen David Simon (HBO’s The Wire) other show, “Generation Kill”? It’s about the war in Iraq, and one of the characters is actually portrayed by one of the marines who the show is based on. I think it gives the show some authenticity, and legitimacy, since he was actually there. Really well written.

[@duanekennard3298]

I spent 25 years working on commercial/charter fishing boats as a mate. I ALWAYS did wheel watch myself after waking up one time and finding another mate asleep at the wheel. I never slept on a wheel watch. Plus I was trained to go down and check the engine room every other hour.That training paid off more than once. On the ocean you can have life vests...a lifeboat..an EPIRB...etc..but once your boat goes down and all that is around you is 100 miles of open ocean......Yeah.....

[@trevorerasmus1605]

Condolences to the affected families and friends of the Destination. As a Captain I can only imagine what their final moments in that harsh environment were like and the thought is pretty grim. May their souls Rest In Peace.

The worst part is that the FV Destination was completely preventable. They put a new bulbous bow on and were carrying heavier crab pots, installed by the boat owner, but the owner failed to have the stability rating of the ship re-evaluated. That boat owner killed his crew and sunk the FV Destination. It's all in the Coast Guard report on the incident. Absolutely tragic.

[@Ackermanmedia]

In high school we had many fishing fleets that left our town for SE Alaska. One of the boats in 1990-91 ish took too many nets and the captain knew it he was risking it because they didn't complete all the work at the dock before departure. When your CG is high as a captain you must make sure your maneuvering doesn't get too wonky. They were trying to make up time and entered the Campbell River transition at the wrong time and the boat capsized and sunk in about 30 seconds. My buddy was asleep in his bunk 3 decks from the water's surface. He probably didn't have 30 seconds to even figure out what was happening before he was gone.
