Deadliest Catch

I like this show, and Ice Road Truckers! One of the boats used in Deadliest Catch is apparently based on Lake Union in Seattle, so says the operator of the in-city tour we took this summer with my bf's parents.

ETA: I actually just looked up the bios of the crews featured on this season, and it turns out ALL of them are based in Seattle. I guess it shouldn't surprise me...we love our boats and seafood!

Last season after the last show, they taped a reunion show with the Captains in a Tavern somewhere Downtown.

My boyfriend's dad keeps trying to get me to watch Ice Road Truckers, but I still haven't seen it. Apparently it is just as good though. I'll have to look out for it.

All of them? Even the Cornelia Marie? I could have sworn on the Cornelia Marie it says "Juneau, AK." I always thought that is where they are based. Hmmm...interesting. I've always wanted to visit Seattle.

Seattle is a great city; just plan on coming between May and Aug.

They may be registered in Juneau for financial or other practical reasons. I don't know though.

And I was laughing at Sig cussing out the other guys for being stubborn as he refused to give in first.
