Great camera work. You have to salute the fishermen who face this to earn a living.

Phew ... breathtaking video, best I've seen since Deadliest Catch, which was easily one of the greatest factual TV series ever made.

And the equally excellent Trawlermen on the BBC except there were times when even I would have benefited from sub-titles on that programme.

Great video, made me sea sick just watching it.  However John I cannie understand why yee dunnee ken just fit they are spaken aboot in Trawlerman. Those loons spake perfect Buchan to me!!!
Incidentally Jimmy Buchan, star of the show and a millionaire stood at our local elections as a conservative and only lost by 400 votes.  He has given up politics and gone back to fishing.

I did wonder that Ken - how did the cameraman keep the boats that were crashing through the waves in the centre of the shot and in perfect focus :o
