- this is a video of a fish packer taking on water and sinking during the 2014 roe herring fishery. The packer just makes it in to French Creek B.C. and is able to be pumped out and saved. Every one was fine and the boat didn't pack anymore fish but finished the season.
Shout out to those submerged diesels bringing it home for a win!
Pretty damn salty
If they were electrical bye bye boat and possibly crew!!
@@mpower320i same thing if the air intake would’ve gotten submerged
Not really, there is a rear engine room water tight bulkhead.
Liquid cooled.
And, that's why, ladies and gentleman, he's the captain.
Because he drove it into the boat ramp?
@@carpballet yes
dont listen to him ladies and gentleman, any body could do what he did.
@@blackstone3323 Sure, everyone! But a good Captain must have the right Idea to the right Time! And much people don't have any Idea, especially not in Moments full of Stress! They can only say afterwards: "Oh, it's so easy, everybody is able to do the same." But doing the right Things in the right Time is not everytime easy.
6 years later and I'm over here saying "come on, come ON, COME ON just make it!!!!!!!!"
No shit, I've seen this vid a dozen times and everytime im the same!
hahahaha
Make it six and a half!
I am totally impressed. That boat was actively sinking, and she would have been very difficult to maneuver. She came in so smooth and evenly, you could believe it was all intentional. Super good job to the crew!
That's the maritime equivalent of "any landing you can walk away from is a good landing"!
quick thinking for the captain.. great job....
There's no "quick thinking" there. It's an obvious decision. WHERE ARE THE BILGE PUMPS?
Probably working overtime but that still wasn't enough.

you should listen to them telling pilots how to fly... or telling people who believe in democracy how to convert to trump and fascism...internet is full of bozos.
@@captlarry-3525 antifa is a oxymoron the left are extremely fascist but why tf would you bring that bull shit here not the fucking place jackass
Glad the boat made it. Who wants to see a man's boat and livelihood lost in front of his fellow fishermen.
Thanks for sharing
What was the name of the packer?
Thanks again
I mean if its your job and you dont have it insured you are a bit of a dunce.
@@TheBUGZNTA I'm sure he's got insurance, but who wants to go through all that rigmarole, takes bloody ages. He'll be out of work for a shorter period doing this.
Insurance isn't the "fix all". There's a lot more to consider. Not the same process as passenger cars where you'd just go down and get you a new one and not give it another thought.
@@txmuddigger People who have insurance are fully covered............right up to the moment they claim.
Beautiful maneuver, hats off to the captain and his crew!
That was awesome, I have never seen anything like that in my life. Great video
That's his living he did everything he could do to save it, bless him and his family
Amazing Job By The Skipper And Crew! He comes ripping into the harbor and never misses a beat getting to the ramp!
Look at her pushing on...old girl!
Her and the skipper had the same idea.
Kody Zappa NEVER GIVE UP NEVER SURRENDER
YEP,. I loved that. SOMETIMES I think my Norwegian roots connects me to boats. Best outcome, I think.
She's a Badass Billy Bob Bitch
im actually crying after seeing this...what an amazing job omg this is just such a great video..
glad to see all safe,
lost friends on the 1987 sinking of the Lobster boat 'Reliance' out of Newport, Rhode Island
Damn fine job to run it aground, lightly, at a boat launch. Fully saved with no panic. Good men aboard.
Hats off to the Captain with nerves of steel who kept calm and brought home the bacon !
yes, and we all know how much bacon fish are worth.
That's overloading an old boat and lots of fresh water around.. I worked on this boat when it was a dragger in the 60s.... I was also stationed at French Creek as an engineer on the Cape Cockburn. Best job ever!
Amazing that the engine was still running! What a great save!
Diesels can run underwater as long as the air intake is above the water.
wouldn’t have been under most commercial boats have there engines in the front under the wheelhouse
@@andrewmarkham7355 👆👆
@@dthatoneguy2540 It’s crazy all the comments on here I’ve been commercial fishing eight years that engine room is not under water at all that’s why she still floating fucking people are so dumb there is a bulkhead between the fish tank and the engine room obviously if the back deck was that far underwater the engine room would be equally underwater if it was taking on water so dumb people think they know what they’re talking about and have zero idea
That may be one of the most heroic things I've ever seen!
A couple of years ago my engine room filled up with water on my 36 ft. gillnetter , just between the Dundas Islands and Port Simpson B.C. ..my john Deere engine was completely under water ..my turbo for my air was above the rear of the engine ..so it gave my deck hand time to try to get it pumped out. After using a 5 gallon pail ..my deckhand had four other bilge pumps that I was too lazy to throw away ..all worked that day..my gillnetter came close to rolling over.. We got her pumped out and made it home under our own power ...yeah , those guys were lucky the bull works never gave way.
Wow!!!!! Glad everything worked out the crew is fine and the boat well she deserves an overhaul for that job well done 💪💪
That was immediately my thought.......... ground it...... as best you can.
Some one didn't want to lose their boat.
Good man.
Great captain
Atta boy Capt... nice landing
Wow. Great thinking and lucky he was close enough to docking that he could make it before she went down.
"where's he going..... The bottom" made me laugh!
wow. he did the only thing he could've ramming it onto the boat ramp. good job and nerves of steal!
that's quick thinking
Here i am, 7 years since the video was published and i'm still silently yelling "GET HER ON THE RAMP". ---w---
I kept saying "find a beach. Skipper!" He did one better and stuffed her on a launch ramp!
I was thinking why not just run it on to a beach, he did one better and beached it where it was easy to get to to fix it. Guess that’s why he’s the captain
Great job, Captain! Never give up!
Quick thinking by the captain great job great driving perfect plan save his boat 🇺🇸
He caught so many fish it practically sank him.
Good work Captain...
Yay thanks for the stress load right before the holiday weekend
Reminds me of the "Orca" when Jaws jumped on it and ate Quint
Dude I hadn't seen it yet! Now you ruined the ending for me. Gosh!
@@MrDrewmcdonald That's not the ending.
@@darioinfini oh good. I hate it when 40 year old movies get ruined for me. I'm still waiting to find out if Han survived the carbon freeze chamber!
Have you seen the one where Quint jumps on the sinking Orca and beats up the shark?
Wow...amazing job!! That boat looked like she had some get up and go left in her!! She might behold, but she sure is cute with her front end out of the water like that
One Bad Ass Captain at the helm of that boat. 😁👍
Only a few steps away from the French Creek Pub! He'll probably need one or ten after this!
Hey, he got it back to the dock. Could've ended a lot worse.
I just love this video . Absolutely remarkable
Even when sinking, she never gave up and made it back home! Atta girl!
She sank at her mooring in Steveston BC this winter and is hauled out at the Trites road boat yard now. Not sure if it will be saved or sent to the wrecker
cheers for the update
So? Was she saved or wrecked?
@@jontoronto2272 She was scrapped in 2018. www.nauticapedia.ca/dbase/Query/Shiplist4.php?&name=Elva%20M.%20No.%20II&id=23822
@Pee Tee No idea but a guess, the owners put the maintenance in to keep her going, until the wood in the hull decided it was time for replacement and they just didn't have the cash to effectively build a new boat out of her. They could get a loan to build a brand new boat from scratch but not to rebuild the old one.
@Pee Tee lot of possibilities, common causes could be the packing gland on the shafts could've blown out, cooling pipe failure, maybe he hit something that caused a hole. Who knows. He does but the video doesn't show or explain.
Who else has forgotten to put the plug in at boat ramp ?
But hey I remember to load the kids and sandwiches.
Now that was a smart captain..Kept it from totally si king by running it on. Ground...bravo
The stern was underwater the whole time! It’s a miracle he made it to the ramp. The engine room must have been watertight (???) amazing luck.
pineyLt a deisel will run underwater as long as the air intake is high enough.
In the salt water would have been higher but soon as you hit the fresh water buoyancy is lost. My father in law has done this on quite a few occasions... As long as the pumps don't quit you're good :)
I was wondering if the engine wasn't more under the wheel house.
if your father in law has had to do this on quite a few occasions perhaps his problem is really boat maintenance, not sinking.
The engine room was flooded guaranteed.
Pretty smart move on the captain's part very cool.
The herring boat I worked had a live fish tank. Live fish would be brailed from the "catch net" into the tank, then placed live in pens upon returning to the marina. When we "pumped down" the live tank, our ass end was barely out of the water. Glad these folks saved the boat!
Thankfully the made it.
great job , this capitan is amazing!!!
Now that's true captain skills right there ! Bravo !
Nice work from a fellow tow boat Capt
when Herring fight back....to be continued.....!!! ;-)
Nice work Cappy great save!!
For boaters, what is the most likely cause of her taking on that much water? Second, I agree with those that praise the Captain, ground her, don't let her sink--but most likely the action would have been needed if preventive maintenance had been taken in the first place.
You ask what happened then in the same breath say it wouldn't of happened if preventative maintenance had been done. It could have hit an underwater obstruction, prop shaft could have broken, who knows?
Nicely done captain. Nicely done....
Awesome! He beached his sinking ship on the boat ramp!
good thinking! rear plank(s) popped off no doubt, so if fish on he made it by a whisker! :)
Nice! Great work by the skipper 👍
❤i worked on boats like that coming home fully loaded with shrimp and from long lining i miss those day's ❤❤❤😂❤
I can see why he saved the boat, Ginger and Maryanne were not aboard!
“We’re taking on a little water captain, are you still gonna send it?”
“What are ya silly, of course I’m gonna send it!”
Lmao fuck yea boys
Now thats a captain who loves his boat👍🏾
Good job Skip landing boat on boat launch.
Happy to hear crew is safe.
just in time!
Hey, that's my name!
i wonder how many prayers he did before getting home
The real question is why did god want to sink him?
The real answer is that he got his own ass out of trouble with wisdom, experience and determination instead of wising hoping and praying for divine interference.
I agree 100% A very experienced captain.
Exactly no prayers, he was busy actually saving the ship. Had he prayed and expected devine intervention he would have sunk.
That sinking feeling. Literally!
Nicely done Cap.
What a captain did everything right to save his vessel and crew
Incredible... Good job Skipper!
I feel like thats a really good boat to take on that much water and still get u home
It’s when your desperate for the toilet, There is NOTHING gonna get in your way
Coastguard: Sir, There’s a speed limit in the harbour, Your going a bit too fast
Boat: SHUT UP, gotta get back gotta get back
good job, sir. you did the best you could do under the circumstances!
Smart captain..a few dings on the hull is better than a sunken boat
I'm betting the pucker factor was a 9.9 out of 10.
WTF?? Will the engine room flood out?????
Good work skipper!
Excellent work fast thinking captain
Nice job Captain!!
Good job skipper! You kept her from becoming a hazard to navigation by pushing it to that boat ramp.
Any sinking you can walk away from is a good one.
^.^
this was better than the jack sparrow scene in pirates of the carribean
GanksThor savvy
Great Job Skipper 👌🏼
The Water must have been very near the Diesel engine, skill, Judgement and luck. Well done.
I guess what save the boat was because the engine was working and not located in the Stern ?
Not sinking, she’s compartmentalized and the lazzarete is flooded,and she’s designed to stay afloat with a compartment flooded.
Not so sure about that... Looks like a large portion of the hold is flooded and the rails are awash almost to the wheelhouse!!! Had to be close to flooding the engine compartment... Good work by the skipper, but need to know circumstances to determine cause. Was it at crossing the bar? Was it at at the fishing grounds while putting on a seine of fish?? Not enough data to know, but any way the captain communicated the vessel's issues, kept the crew safe, and delivered his catch (hopefully).
@@jimbosweeney She was a packer, and as was answered elsewhere in the comments, she was way overloaded which is why she started taking on water for this clip.
LOL no, not on these old wooden boats. Usually open stem to stern.
Might have been when new. My experience is old timber fish boats have too many crew modifications done and watertight integrity has or was lost decades previously.
@jim Bosweeney is this the port of Ilwaco, Washington? You mentioned the bar, and I thought I recognized this port. It looks just like it. I grew up fishing out of that port. I haven't seen it in over 20yrs though
Kudos to the Captain & the Crew. Also to the diesel engines.
She brought you home, can't ask for more than that's
One heck of a CAPTAIN!! Good job all.
This is called : Good seamanship , and a cold head . 👍
Good job capt.!!!!
We just watched a Captains Captain👍🏻👍🏻 ⛵️
Nice save
Great work...bòat can be better assessed when the tide goes out under the vessel, though may damage some structures. Wonder if he had catch on board? And wonder further if there were emergency high capacity pumps operating or on board.
The captain knew if he stopped she'd sink. Great thinking using the boat ramp.
Great job by the skipper and crew, saved that vessel.
an awesome piece of seamanship!
I know people who have work boats that they know they leak. And they keep one or two gas "mud pumps' on bored. So if it get this bad, they can pump allot of water out fast. Same type of pumps the Coast Guard uses to assist when they respond to to a boat taking on water. And they really are not very expressive and take up very little space.
That must have been a fun trip back home.🤯
Great job getting it to the ramp!!!
This is what driving home with a watery turd hanging out feels like.
Glad she made it home safe.
