The Yard - Season 1

Boat-repairing operations in the ports of Alaska and the Pacific Northwest are followed. In the series premiere, Don puts Curtis the greenhorn under a lot of pressure until the air compressor shuts down.

The crew races to fix a vessel following a devastating accident; a mishap threatens to capsize a tugboat; the salvage team tows a giant barge.

The stakes are raised in the fast-paced world of shipyards; workers race to get the vessels back on the water as soon as possible.

Shamrock Salvage and Towing's crew finds themselves trying to figure out how to raise a rusted old barge from the shallows before someone gets hurt.

The job of maintaining the nation's fleet of fishing boats, work vessels and passenger ships is fraught with stress. Superior Marine in Alaska is assailed by a storm, and Don leads the charge to save the boats from gale force winds.

The teams at some of our country's largest shipbuilding operations rush to save sinking houseboats, launch boats and fix plumbing problems.

Paint jobs, leaking hatches and recreational boaters put shipyards around the country to work during a busy season.

In the season finale, the shipyards face some of their toughest challenges, including serious hull repairs and broken generators.
