The Maverick is owned by husband and wife Rick and Donna Quashnick, and skippered by the boat’s young captain, Blake Painter for king crab in season 3 of Deadliest Catch. The crew of the boat is significantly younger than that of most other boats, but they believe that their energy and stamina make up for their lack of experience.
