How come everytime a pot comes up to the rail, it has to be spun 180-degrees around the vertical before being lifted over the rail and locked down on the launcher?
It just seems like the bridle could be changed so that the pot came up "right side in". I'm sure there's a reason, but darned if I can figure it out.

Hey guys, I have a question about the share. For example, on tonights show April 26th 2011 on the Cornelia Marie they were discussing the share of Jake and his brother. Each get 12.5 percent from what they said, and on the paper they had a break down. 515,000 lbs made 570,000. Minus 70 percent to boat?? I don't understand that. How many owners are there on the Cornelia Marie and how do they get paid. Are the expense like fuel, bait, and food included in that or is it taken out after the 70 percent? Then the crew shares are taken out. I just am confused how each, the owners all shares including Jake and brother, the skipper, and Crew make money. Some insight would be great. Also is it basically all the same for the boats on deadliest catch? Thank you in advance.

I assume that the crab pots are leased/ rented by the boats from a supplier.
Do the processors own them or other, private companies? What is the fee per pot?

In most, if not all ships featured on the show, the windows in front of the captains have circular cut-outs with glass inserts and some type of plastic cylinders in the center of them. I haven't been able to figure out what these are, and what purposes they serve.
Can somebody answer me? My guess was some sort of A/C or Heater, but if that's the case why is it right in the captain's line of sight? Seems like it's deliberately right in front of where the captain would want a clear view. If somebody knows and wants to enlighten me, I'll be grateful. Thanks, Ryan Havely

Doesn't it kill the crab when they are stepped on to off load?

Does anyone know where the crab end up? Are they sent to restaurants around the country, or do they just remain local. I would love to find some and know where my dinner came from.

Where are the pots once the tanks are filled? I've noticed the crews celebrate about going home once the tanks are full, but the pots are not on deck.

In the opening shots we see the cemetery as the crabbers leave Dutch Harbor, is there a memorial for the lost and if so how many crabbers have been lost?

I just started watching the series "Deadliest Catch", when the crabs go into the pots to feast what keeps them from feasting and leaving since the pots are tied securely????? Also if the pots are tied that securely how do they get in there?
