Crew[ | ]

Crew members can eliminate some work involved in the fishing process, and are necessary for performing certain functions, such as setting a trawling net. Crew members are available for any boat except the Børge.

Crew have an initial hiring fee, and after that they will take a percentage of your revenue each time you sell your fish at a port. These amounts will vary between crew members.

Max skill level for each attribute is level 23.

Crew House[ | ]

From update version 1.3.1 you can now store your crew in the crew house at ports.

Storing a crew in the Crew House will cost you -50% monthly fee based on your crew members regular monthly fee. There will also be added travel expenses and time needed for your crew member to get to the mustering port, if they are located elsewhere.

This should make it easier for you to add your crew back to any of your boats when needed.

Attributes[ | ]

Each crew member has attributes that gauge their effectiveness at certain tasks. Crew members have individual starting values for each attribute, but can improve over time as they perform them. The exact numerical effects of the skills are currently unknown.

Rest[ | ]

Sending Crew members to rest will make them start regenerating their Stamina. The stamina will regenerate at a rate of +1 Stamina per hour, but can be increased through the use of food made from Cooking.

Food[ | ]

Crew members who are resting can use food to increase how much Stamina they regenerate per hour.

To feed a Crew member make sure the Crew member is in one of the Resting slots and that there is food available (hamburger icons underneath the Cook slot, max: 4 hamburgers available at any time). Click+Drag on the hamburger icon and drag it over the Crew member you want to feed and release it.

Any Crew member who has been fed with a hamburger will double their Stamina regeneration and receive +2 Stamina per hour instead of the standard +1 Stamina per hour.
