It seemed way over the top. I’m from Long Island Catholic girls high school, war veteran and have been around fighter squadrons. No stranger to foul language. This is of a different level

‘A different level’, yes that’s the way to describe the language on the tuna boat! Seriously, virtually every other word was obscene, foul and otherwise totally rotten. It was if there was a conscious effort to include as many swear words into a sentence as possible.

There were only three of us on the boat and me and the other guy, a high school student, took our lead from the boss, who had been fishing likely all his life. Since I worked only one summer on one boat, I have no idea how things worked on other boats but your post made me wonder if it was a ‘commercial fishing boat cultural thing’.
