EIS Alaska

Greetings and welcome to EIS Alaska.

We are an Alaskan commercial fishing family, harvesting a variety of fish off the rugged coast of Kodiak Island. Our channel is about our experiences as commercial fishermen, island life, and the challenges and work that go into running a small fishing vessel.

Join us as we participate in different fisheries, tackle vessel maintenance and upgrades, and explore the beauty and rich history of Kodiak and the commercial fishing industry.

If you are interested in the highest quality seafood available, consider purchasing seafood directly from us at Emerald Isle Seafoods. We offer a great selection of halibut, rockfish, salmon, and cod. Harvested by us, with care and 100% transparency from harvest to distribution, we promise you the finest seafood Alaska can offer. Check us out at www.eisalaska.com

Thank you for watching and we hope you enjoy our channel. Please help us grow by subscribing, commenting and sharing with your friends and family.

    Len you spoil your boys building them a wave wall/shelter, much better to harden them up in good old mother nature, out in the open cleaning fish and baiting hooks! 🙂

    Question: Considering all the endless hours you spend on this boat as well as the material you put in - in retrospect, would a new boat not have been cheaper ? Besides that, keep on going with your great work and videos

    Analog gauges are best on a boat, you could always tee into systems for digital. Don't you have a gen set for AC besides shore power? Where is the breakers for that going to be? I know the freezer unit is AC powered and those deck lights, so just curious how that is going to be addressed. Looking great guys, you should be fishing or are these older footage.

  • @EISAlaska
    @EISAlaska17 сағат бұрын

    Hi Rob. Yes, we do have a genset. It is 30kw three phase, so plenty of power for the new freezer and everything else on the vessel. The breaker panel is in the engine room. We will get an engine room update and walk around soon.

    Greed, unlike fishing, is NOT at all sustainable. As long as you allow KZread to assault your loyal viewers with 17,20,30,50+ second addsI will be disliking all your videos and your response comments. I have been with you since your very first post on KZread and I really enjoy and love your family and content. That is why it is so wrong to attempt to extract every penny by way of the use of my time and your viewers time. We understand monetization is important for you. I'm merely asking to adjust the balance a bit. I want to rebinge watch your videos but the add time is too much. You guys are awesome!!!! Please keep the awesome content and family fun coming. I look forward to every video you post. Love you guys!!!

    We do appreciate the comment, feedback, and of course our loyal viewers! We don't typically mess with ad placement much, KZread picks natural breaks in dialogue or action to pick ad placement, to do so manually would take quite some effort. We don't control duration of ads whatsoever. We do make sure videos aren't "overloaded" with ad breaks. Again, thanks for the comment, we appreciate your support!

    Maybe a clear piece of plexiglass with a piano hinge on one side so you could see tripped breakers and still provide inadvertent switch bumping.

  • @EISAlaska
    @EISAlaska2 күн бұрын

    We tried to purposely bump some of them off after install, you have to get way up in there to click them off. The inset is pretty far in to prevent it. If we do find that they still get bumped, the plexi on hinge is a great idea! Thanks for the comment Alex!

    A couple small hinges and some thin plywood would make a panel cover to make it impossible to bump a breaker in bad weather. 2 dollars.

    @EISAlaska2 күн бұрын

    They are inset pretty far, we tried to "accidently" bump them off, and its very hard to do so. They are up and in far enough. If we do find it to be an issue though, we'll certainly add a see-thru cover to prevent it.

    That's a very kind offer, jeverich. I think we're ok on batteries for the moment. The shipping would probably be pretty exorbitant unless you're here in Kodiak.

    We'll definitely do that if we find ourselves bumping them. We tried to "accidently" switch them off a few times, its pretty difficult with the inset.

    We clip sash weights on when we come up and down a sharp reef or edge. Helps with pulling the line down keeping it from "cloths lining" off the bottom.

    Fitment and placement are really important. You mentioned they were also back lit. Back on the schooner Eldorado in the late 60's I run red lights for nighttime running on all my guages and panels. Having them accessible during an emergency is key. Glad you're trying to over think all scenarios. Love your channel might make a visit home in August or September.
