Meet Luke and Landon, two rookies determined to succeed in the most dangerous job in the world: crab fishing on the Bering Sea. Luke has never finished anything he's started and Landon, he's only 10 days sober.
Landon may have cost Wild Bill $50,000. Luke is a dead man walking, struggling to work through the pain. Now both greenhorns are put to the ultimate test - a good ol' fashioned gear race.
The worst storm of the season hits like a bomb, but for Luke it isn't the massive swell and the howling winds that get him. Instead he's taken out by a stinging jellyfish to the eye.
The worst storm of the season hits the Summer Bay. At the rail in whipping seas Landon makes a painful mistake that puts his career in jeopardy.
Inspired by his spiritual guide Nick, Landon makes the call to go to rehab - but not before his nipple is nearly torn off. Luke gets one last chance but he'll have to succeed at one of the hardest, most dangerous jobs on the boat.
