I have deep respect for those that navigated this world, centuries ago, without modern conveniences.

[@taradavid1404]

Me too those men are among most courageous in world to go out in most dangerous ocean on planet i respect men the business of oldest profession and reality tv they always kept genuine never scripted show sold out given all years the show has been on tv

[@markstevens2780]

I spent 1 season in the bearing sea ,at the time I was 45 years old and made that season $60,000 richer Now I am 59years old and I am gearing to go long lining for halibut! There is something in us that gets us to return every year and that is the Respect I have for this powerful sea.

[@Skinz1975]

I came very close to losing my leg this year salmon fishing, still can not walk right, been on crutches for 6 months, Slowly recovering and already looking forward to next season! Salt in your veins I think they call it. 😊

[@kristenkaz3080]

Best of luck! Be safe & return safely to your family & friends!

Every ship I was on in Alaska, there was a nautical globe compass inset in the wheel house near the wheel and/or joystick.

[@shawnhenderson1130]

A boat without an old-school compass is like a car without tires... I highly doubt there just blindly traveling along... lol

[@MagicMorley701]

There's a camera boat that follows them around. I'm sure they couldn't pull gear but they definitely knew where they were going.

[@philipwright3847]

Thing is they're so far north a traditional compass probably won't be much use. You rely heavily on gyrocompass headings the further north you go

[@moceri55]

@@philipwright3847it is posted on the chart what the variation is for that area and you correct for deviation with magnets. How do you think Sigs father would navigate in the 70’s? They didn’t have GPS compasses back then.

[@natec599]

@@philipwright3847 compasses still work but you need to have declination charts as it changes more quickly.

[@TennesseeTriStar]

@@philipwright3847 you want so bad for this show to be real , like it's not 100% acting and fake.

[@catmanrescue1]

SAGA, the Guiding light lol. Awesome.

[@johncase1353]

You could clearly see one of the production team unplugging it to shut it off to make it seem like it just suddenly went out.

[@drmayeda1930]

Was he faking an outage or a basic troubleshooting technique? They tried turning it off then tuning it back on. They should have waited 15 seconds before turning it back on. Given the situation, it might not matter. I wonder when the next season will be. I think the fishery is shut down so there won't be anything to catch except cod.

[@michaelschneider2874]

I have been in those waters and Cannot Believe that Boat did not have a Compass on the Bridge ?

[@zebs2401]

jake is an awesome captain as so is the bandit..kudos fully!!!

[@michaelschneider2874]

I always checked the fathometer reading against my course and present position on my watch . Gave me something to do . Also made hourly engine room checks . I enjoyed navigating the boat . And if was getting tired I would stand for the rest of my watch .

Csodálatos a jövő Kapitánya Gratulálok

[@vladdracula5851]

And they have a chaser boat that does All The Longshots views so I'm sure they were relying on the other boats radar and navigational LOL still made for interesting television

[@forrest2457]

I probably would have one of those old school compasses

[@splatterize]

I miss him so much.

The Bandit is my FAV BOAT!!!

[@tylerkinley268]

Only in a matter of life and limb can people have that kind of trust and willingness to help. Ships have ferried parts and even deckhands to help another boat, the saga saved a crew of another boat, etc. Seems the more dangerous a job the closer the bond between those who do it (cops, firefighters, emts, soldiers, etc)

[@fredhinck9685]

Funny segment. There's always a compass since the invention of them.

[@jessanddavidboham8014]

Once again. Bless all of you they go up there and fish and do what you do and face the elements and put your lives up against nature and it's amazing and we all appreciate you and thank you and you guys are some Best of the Best.

[@3.75istheway7]

Never hurts to have a pocket compass!

[@fukkyoutube]

i get he may have been teaching them little tricks but all those boats have a huge $10k + marine compass

[@MGreen-vz6yb]

I love Jake Anderson

[@rodneychandler5387]

the problem with electronics in a nutshell. Gotta have manual readings up to snuff as well.

[@barstri2328]

I engineered on a tugboat we had a old school captain who would turn off all the electronics and would have the mates use charts and a compus and a sexton

[@kreemkrackered3755]

Literally just seen a compass in the wheelhouse…

[@TheSouthernBadger]

They're too used to the auto pilot.

[@danielj3440]

Its for the tv drama, a well experienced captain like John could guild that boat home with no aids,

[@MW-on1ft]

They were only missing the auto pilot's compass feed (electronic). They still had a compass and to hand steer due to the auto pilot not working. Just a little inconvenient, still have radar and charts as well as redundant gps. Make believe drama.

[@andrewkawaoka634]

I am not tough enough to work on a crab boat 😢

[@jacobbaird4975]

They don’t have a manual compass on a ship?

[@etelkaolah2621]

Üdv nagyon jó nézem

[@erictirado9237]

Wait no reading on the compass, hmmm

[@etelkaolah2621]

[@blade7734]

Navigate by radar or hand held gps

[@casualguy393]

That wouldn't make for exciting TV. Gotta make the viewers think the boat is going to sail forever and never return home.

[@intorainbowzOG]

Turn it off then turn it back on. 🤪
