Sig Hansen Bio:Sig Hansen, whose father was one of the original crab fishermen of Dutch Harbor, has been a captain since the age of 22.A fourth-generation Norwegian fisherman, Sig is very superstitious, but always brings back a big catch. He and his two brothers Norman and Edgar, (Sig is the eldest) not only work on the Northwestern, they own it. Living proof that blood is thicker than water, this three-brother crew has fished together for almost 20 years. Sig revels in the strategy and competition of fishing.
