Lobstermen: Jeopardy at Sea

Lobstermen: Jeopardy at Sea is a multi-part documentary/reality show on the Discovery Channel chronicling the fall 2005 North Atlantic lobster fishing season aboard several fishing boats. Created and narrated by Thom Beers, it is heavily patterned after and can be considered a spin-off of fellow Discovery Channel program Deadliest Catch, which deals with Alaskan crab fishing. Lobstermen debuted on June 20, 2006, one week after the finale of season two of Deadliest Catch in its former time slot.

gollark: It would be easy enough if I could figure out how to convert the hexgrid into axial/cube coords.
gollark: The trick is probably implementing in software the "rotate sixty degrees" operation on the actual characters without OCRing.
