Bobby Shatford: Skip, what are we gonna do about those numbers? They suck. Captain Billy Tyne: The boys are talking? About how I lost it? Billy Tyne's lost it? Things get a little slow they're ready to draw and quarter you. I didn't think you would go along with them. Bobby Shatford: It's not that, Skip. I'm out here because I need the money. Captain Billy Tyne: You know, last trip I thought you had something to offer. But you know, you're just a punk. Bobby Shatford: Hey, you promised me a shitload of fish! Captain Billy Tyne: You'll get a shitload of fish. I've gone out before and motored back with so much stock little boys like you had to pack it on the pier. I always find the fish, always! And I will this time. So don't fuck with me!

Christina: I'll be a sleep and all the sudden there he is, that big smile. You know that smile, and I say hey Bobby where you been, but he won't tell me, he just smiles and says remember Christina I'll always love you, I loved you the moment I saw you, I love you now, and I love you forever. There's no goodbyes, there's only love Christina only love. Then he's gone. But he's always happy when he goes so I know he's got to be ok absolutely ok. Ethel: I love your dream. Billy's voice: The fogs just lifting. Throw off you're battle line, throw off you're stern. You head out to South channel, past Rocky Neck, Ten pound island. Past Niles Pond where I skated as a kid. Blow you're airhorn and throw a wave to the lighthouse keeper's kid on Thatcher Island. Then the birds show up black backs, herring gulls, big dumb ducks. The sun hit ya , head North, open up to 12, steamin' now. The guys are busy, you're in charge. Ya know what? You're a goddam swordboat captain! Is there any thing better in the world?

Christina 'Chris' Cotter: [letter to Bobby] Hi, Bobby, you're somewhere out there, on the deep blue goddamn sea, and I'm writing this on a box two semi-down pillows, that I secretly bought for us at Penny's, and I'm smiling at myself because the surprise I have in store for you... I'm talking removal, from our dungeons in the Crow's Nest... to our own place... It's no great shakes but... but ya gotta begin with a baby shake... right? Forever love Bobby... I'm in this for the long run...

Linda Greenlaw: [warning Billy over the radio] Billy? Get outta there! Come about! Let it- let it carry you out of there! What the hell are you doing? Billy! For Christ sake! You're steaming into a bomb! Turn around for Christ sake! Billy, can ya hear me? You're headed right for the middle of the monster! Billy?... [starts crying] Linda Greenlaw: ...Oh, my God!

Linda Greenlaw: [at the services for the crew of the Andrea Gail] I knew Billy Tyne, but I did not know his crew very well, but any man who sailed with him, must have been the better for it. Rober Shatford, Dale Murphy, Micheal Moran, David Sullivan, Alfred Pierre...May you rest easy long-liners, in fair winds, and calm seas...For those of us left behind, the vast unmarked grave which is home for those lost at sea is no consolation. It can't be visited, there is no headstone on which to rest a bunch of flowers...The only place we can revisit them, is in our hearts, or in our dreams. They say swordboatmen suffer from a lack of dreams, that's what begets their courage...Well we'll dream for you: Billy, and Bobby, and Murph, Bugsy, Sully, and Alfred Pierre...Sleep well...Good Night...

Melissa Brown: This weather fax just came in. Edie, have a look at this. Edie Bailey: We have got to head in now! Put in at Watch Hill! Alexander McAnally III: In this stuff, harbor's too dangerous. Melissa Brown: Dangerous? Alexander McAnally III: Dash into shore, cut across shipping lanes... Edie Bailey: This is a hurricane coming straight at us! Melissa Brown: Let me reduce sails, Sandy, or even go back home. Alexander McAnally III: This is my boat. We're gonna ride this thing out, not for fun, for safety. Do what I've always done: go with the flow.
