Iceberg Hunters

[MouseTrap]

Has anyone seen another boating reality show on the Weather Channel called Iceberg Hunters? It's about a family in Newfoundland, with such crazy accents that they have sub-titles.

These guys go out in Novi-Style boats and shoot rifles at ice-burgs trying to get large chunks to break off. Then they haul in the ice to sell to water bottling plants as the "cleanest water on Earth".

Looking at this, I KNOW that a reality show about Lobster Boat Racing would be successful!

Their accents are painful, especially the kid who hates to work. It is a funny show though and it is nice to see they have this option in their back yard to supplement fishing. I have not seen it in a while but I remember the one episode where they forgot the bullets and were yelling at each other.

How about $25/lb for tuna or $1k for a replacement anchor?

Or maybe $3k to run out to to georges?

:-? Well, here is the consumer side of the equation. $99.00 for 12 Liters of the stuff (I mean cleanest water on the planet). It is a pretty bottle though!
