About the wreck
FV Scandies Rose (Fishing Vessel Scandies Rose) was a crab fishing vessel built in 1978 by Bender Shipbuilding out of Mobile, Alabama. Originally named Enterprise, she was registered in Dutch Harbor, Alaska. She mainly fished for king crabs, opilio crabs, and Pacific cod, in both the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska. The sinking of the vessel became more widely known due to being featured in season 16 of the reality TV-show Deadliest Catch.
