Bering Sea Gold

I'm waiting for Dad.

Figure out this buyout,

there might be some yelling and screaming.

You wonder why I'm pissed?

I'm pissed because I don't like people lie to me.

I don't like you either.

The way you've been ripping me off

since I've been in business with you.

All my time's given

and I don't give a

to get done.

Well, as soon as I get something

that's half of my problem.

what? I ain't get nothing?

It ain't my damn fault.

you. I ain't going to

stand down anymore.

You dumb .

Family is family. Business is business.

This is a business.

They say blood and business don't mix.

But for the gold mining fleet,

sometimes you don't have a choice.

Whether it's father and son...

That's why I work on my own.

Brotherly love...

Don't up my deal.

Or a young couple.

Good job, baby.

When you mix business and family...

I am so pissed at him

for the things that have happened.

...you could end up

losing both.

Oh, for Christ's sake.

You know, you, Shawn.

Today's the day, gentlemen.

We're finally getting this sack

of that's costing me a lot getting in the water.

Hey, you did a good job putting it together, though.

After weeks of trials and tribulations,

the brothers Kelly are on the brink

of putting their new dredge the All-In onto the water.

So here we are down at the harbor

trying to get the All-In in the water.

Um, we just put out a load of money

to get this craned in the water.

Like, you have no idea,

but I know in my heart

it's a drop in the bucket compared to what

- we're gonna make this season. - Hell, yeah.

What I'm gonna make this season.

Andy's extremely lucky

to be playing with my toy, you know,

and having the crawler go in the water

and he's running it.

'Cause it's a gold troll...

- Don't do that . - All right, brother.

You just up that whole thing.

No, I didn't. You look good.

No, you didn't. They're not gonna use it now

you stupid .

The plan was to have the All-In on the water

at the beginning of the season, then I can launch my crawler.

But like always, Andy screwed that up.

Hey, try to move the nozzle.

That's impossible.

That's one of the tracks moving.

We're not putting this in the water right now.

Everything is going to over here.

But I was determined to have that boat

ready for the first half of the summer.

So I kept pushing to make that happen for us.

Now finally we're about to see a great moment

in Reaper Nation history.

Looks pretty impressive, huh?

This is the best addition to Reaper Nation

that I've ever seen.

This crane is gonna lift that 35-ton

piece of and put it in the water.

This operator better be careful

because it was not cheap to get that boat ready.

We need to get that boat in the water

as soon as we can to start earning money.

Because we're halfway through the season

and we're seriously behind our goal

to pay everything off.

Good job, Nate.

Everything's looking good, man.

It's just amazing on how a ship like that

can just get picked up.

I mean, he's gotta be real careful.

He's gotta swing it.

I'm not taking any chances with this boat.

That's why my brother and the crew

are using tethers to make sure

we get this boat in the water.

Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.

I am pulling.

Here, I'll come with that line.

It's doing good so far,

at least nothing bad has happened.

So, you know, like you really don't want anything

bad to happen when all of your investment

is dangling in the air like that.

Watch out, Mike.

Get out of the way.

Daniel, pull your side.

We're almost there.

It's a little bit longer and it'll be in the water.

Give it some slack.

Ooh, there it goes.

baby.

We made it.

- We made it. - Oh, yeah.

We're on, baby.

We're on the water, DJ.

I feel like a giant weight's

been lifted off my shoulders

and placed on the Bering Sea.

This is for our family.

I've had to take the lead on this project

and I put in the majority of the blood,

sweat, and tears.

When this all works,

it'll all be worth it.

Reaper Nation will take over Nome.

Thank you, Nate. Beautiful job.

That was perfect. Perfect.

You guys want to check everything?

Make sure no leaks, everything's sealed?

Yeah, that's what he's going to do right now.

- Yeah. - Before we can take this off.

We can dock here for a minute.

Oh, my God!

Damn!

Someone get this! Hurry!

This boat will fill up in two or three hours

and it will sink from the back end

if we don't get that hole taken care of.

I'll tell you that right now. That's way too much water.

While the Kellys' dream

may be washing away...

...just down the road...

We're in the mid-season.

I'm actually falling behind a little bit.

We're getting to that point now where

I really have to stay focused

on how I can pack those hours in

because days are getting shorter

and then, the nights are getting longer.

It's gonna start to get cold

and it's gonna start to get nasty and, you know,

pretty soon it's gonna be all over.

A second generation miner

is determined to make his own mark

as the first half of the summer

draws to a close.

We started off doing so good

until I lose a couple of divers.

I can't find no good help out here.

That hurt the operation big time.

But I can't give up right now.

You gotta just go out there

and go dredge.

When you're the son of a big-time gold miner,

a lot of people think

that I can only make it

by just riding my dad's coattails.

Yeah.

So I really wanted to prove everybody wrong.

And one way to show the doubters

is to dive solo. Doubt tenders,

without anyone.

But I tried it twice

and it's been way tougher than I imagined.

Let's go get some gold.

So today I am really determined

to do a solo six-hour dive.

It'll be a really perfect way to end my first half season.

And most importantly,

it'll get me back on track

to hit my goal.

It'll prove without question that I'm my own man.

Right on the money, dude.

We set up the gear.

Yeah, I can just sense something right here,

something real good about to happen over here.

I'm on the spot called Wall Street.

When I can actually dive it keeps paying out.

Right now, I can't afford any more snags.

I really need

to get back down there and I really need

to stay down there

and grind and get that gold.

Whoo!

All right.

Let's empty the nozzle.

Another rock jam.

I can't believe this happened again.
