Falling asleep at the wheel happens to the best of them but laying down is something else.

As captain one time I once put "the club" on my wheel with the wheel turned to the max and took a nice 6 hour nap on the wheelhouse floor while king crabbing on my boat "The fishy sea hag"... Those were the days

they could drift and start driving into "the ditch" (Taking waves from the side.) which could capsize them if the waves become problematic enough. What if the weather began to change while he was asleep and they drift in the ditch? There is also other things besides JUST the sea to worry about... What if something began to overheat and catch fire? It's happened before on their electric panels, having someone there, awake and aware, can stop it from turning into a life-threatening problem. What if the engine stopped turning and left them dead in the water while they were all asleep? Without the engine going, they would be at the complete mercy of the waves and could again land them in "the ditch" Those are just three examples right off the bat that I can tell you. There are more. Also, do you have another word besides. like?

You don't fall asleep on watch. Jake needs to dump that guy. Since Pirate days if you fall asleep on watch you get marooned doing that is dangerous and cost lives.

If you’re at the helm, your decisions will always be a big deal. You have crew to keep safe, cargo to keep safe, boat to keep safe. This is one of those jobs where, mistake or not, it can cost many things.

Here's a thought.. the guys that are going to be running the boat that night gets to come in and get a little bit of sleep before they have to set up all night watching the boat 🤭

So I thought that as well, but if you hear Jake say that he slept through 4 shifts, it actually comes down to only about 2 hours a shift. 2 hours of watching the wheel to me personally sounds fun, and not out of the question as we pulled guard with 2 hour shifts in the army. Even if the guy knew he was struggling, he should of either sucked it up or notified someone. The risk factors involved in not only the lives / families of the 7 on board, but the gear, the boat, other boaters. Jake would have stayed up if he knew, that guy made a very dumb mistake.

One hour fire guard isnt bad at all until youve been hauling pots for 16+ hours.

This is like drunk driving - you might get away with it once, or twice, or a dozen times. But, sooner or later, your luck will run out and something catastrophic will happen. And your excuses won't matter.

Falling asleep on wheel watch is just as bad as someone falling asleep on tower guard on deployment in a hostile area. Like that’s not good at all. If you do got a severe issue, then wake someone up to cover for ya.

His attitude of everything fine is alarming. If u wnt to sleep wake someone up. He wouldnt b on my boat

This is why captains have radar, ais, or other navigational machines/devices in their bunks so they know what’s going on in the wheelhouse.

does not matter it is the law of the sea and is in the Pirate Code which everyone including Jake and Johnathan fallow you fall asleep on watch you get marooned that's the rules. Falling asleep on watch cost lives.

It’s not that big of a deal he says sure unless you killed everyone. It’s a huge deal it’s one thing to make a mistake it’s another to have no guilt over it and to try and play it off like it wasn’t that big of a thing .

he just had a 4 hour nap lol why wouldn't he just go wake the next fella and go to bed? abit too obvious there, producers

Risking the lives of others isn't pride; it's selfishness and laziness. I hate people like Kenny. It's NEVER their fault or it's "not a big deal" and they've always got some kind of excuse ready for any and all situations. Completely incapable of taking responsibility for his own actions. On top of that Kenny lied straight to Jake's face; he didn't have a stomach ache at all he was just tired and lazy. And the way he has to give himself credit for apologizing for his own mistake? Only an actual manchild pats himself on the back for something like that. I was so happy when he got off the boat. The guy is a danger to everyone around him and holy crap he just does not know when to shut up. One day someone will clock that guy on the jaw properly to teach him a lesson.
