Must have been a pretty sudden event for them. We/crew once had a situation where we all were given 5 mins to use a Sat phone to call home, knowing we may not come back. Jed Eckert: C'mon! We're all going to die, die standing up! Why is it that an economic theorist called an "expert", but a conspiracy expert is called a "theorist"?

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74054220 Fortunately it's a quick and relatively peaceful way to go. Via con Neptune fellas. ...I think you are right; would be a peaceful way to go (once in the water)... Awesome that you put in 20...kudos and much respect to you, for that... Unfortunately, even with all the state-of-the-art technology we have today... Mother Nature, too often, prevails in these Alaskan waters... This was most likely a situation of freezing spray ice build-up on the deck, railing, and pots which affected the trim and stability... crew couldn't knock off ice fast enough- Could have been pots not being lashed down sufficiently- Or, the crab hold only partially tanked- ...had been no known calls prior, regarding engine issues...just the EPIRB signal- ....only Father knows, at this point- So sad...they were a tight crew- men of good reputations and character.. -The Armor of God- "Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

They undertake incredible risk, and save many lives...Always at the ready... I think our total Alaska population is around 900,000....(thousand, not million)...when tragedy hits, all of us seem to be impacted in some way... ** Thank you to Useless Cookie Eater for embedding the video ** Last Edited by Anemone Reef AK on 02/14/2017 10:16 PM -The Armor of God- "Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

So sad when that ship doesn't come in to her berthing spot. One of those occupations where often you don't have anything to bury or cremate and for some that makes closure hard when they just don't come home. Lost at sea....so eerie. |

(OP) User ID: 52389925 United States 02/16/2017 05:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Isn't it considered bad luck to leave harbor for crabbing season on a Friday? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 65903203 If I'm not mistaking, on Deadliest Catch, at least one season's opening day fell on a Friday and many boats refused to go out. I don't know... If so, we never paid attention to that shit...and I was on one of the best crabbers out of Kodiak. That vessel is based out of Seattle now, coming up for crab seasons and/or tendering..as a lot of them are. The main rules are: no bananas on board, and don't whistle up a storm... Reality shows aren't necessarily reality... -thank you for your input/question, though- ....RIP to the crew of the F/V Destination....
