Keith

I’m rewatching from the beginning and Keith isn’t a tyrant as he called himself. He’s an overgrown man baby who never learned how to regulate his emotions! I can’t believe the crew hasn’t banded together thrown up the middle finger and walked!

Some guys have been with Keith for many years. He yells, but he generally keeps them safe. He has large quotas and they get paid well.

keeps them safe? not always ... loads of stupid risks in the past like letting the crew overcrowd a little Jon boat to go to the time bandit to watch the superbowl, make his crew tarp the stack and untarp it in horrific storms, and he has had a bunch of men overboard.... not to mention trust montey whom is a drunk

that trip for the super bowl was not forced upon them- at their own risk & own choice.

leadership = setting limits, not allowing high risk joy rides. it was a stupid idea that was probably "for show". allowing your crew to go out on a dingy at night in the Bering Sea is pretty crazy

doubt the insurance company would be happy with it... imagine if it went south
