Newbie here.. I love the show!

So, hey all.

I got totally addicted to watching the show and the northwestern and sig and crew are my favorites to watch. Anyway, I'm also a native of seattle, and grew up in the ballard area, majority of my life. The reason being, is my father worked all of his life at Marco Marine and Construction. He's retired now.
Anyway, so I was curious if my father had seen the show yet and when I asked him, he said he didn't. Then I showed him the discovery website, and I told him about the show. He told me he worked on the Northwestern when it was built. I figured he was lying to me, until I read on here that it was built by marco! lol He also said, he didn't recognize any of the guys on there, but he did recognize Sig. So, now I told my dad to watch the show and he is!

Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself. I live out on the coast now and am a Teacher.

hehehe.. I dunno. I think my dad worked on masts, and the upper parts of the crab and fishing boats. He would always have blueprints and stuff at his desk. We were never much interested in his job, as my mom worked at a candy factory and she was more popular! Now I wish I had paid more attention to the fishing stuff! ;)

Welcome Janice. Glad you made it aboard. Sounds like we have two more fans as well. Does he have any older pictures of NW to share. Think the info would be fascinating to all. Even his building stories would be great. Hope you enjoy the info and friendly members here. Have fun and jump in the water's fine.
