Okay, so here's the deal: In January 2018, I was tasked to design shirts and crew jackets for Captain Wild Bill Wichrowski's "Summer Bay" Alaskan crab fishing boat. (Yeah... that boat on Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch!) I put my full efforts into creating both t-shirt (printed) and limited-run (embroidered) jackets for that season's crew and camera crew. It was the most high-profile project of my design career. But, I had to keep a lid on it until the products became commercially available. It's taken quite a while to get things aligned with the t-shirt printer and website... but FINALLY! my art is available online at Capt. Bill's website! If you're a fan of the show, and of Capt. Bill's "Summer Bay", please consider purchasing a shirt, sweatshirt, or sticker that I designed. The more units sold, the more art he'll request from me! gear.captwildbill.com/Thanks for supporting my art! -->Buck

Thanks guys! Every time I see one of the crew on TV, I watch for the jacket... but haven't seen it yet. But, if you've seen any interviews with Capt. Bill where he's wearing a light blue Tommy Bahama shirt with "Papa's Pilar" and a marlin embroidered on the back... that's my art too. I've seen him wearing it many times, mostly on "The Bait" episodes, but he rarely turns his back to the camera! haha

That's great Buck. I hear that Capt. Bill spends a fair amount of time in South Florida. I'm a big fan of the show and have seen your artwork regularly. My only question now is are you still going to be affordable for member of the Sailfish Owner's Forum? LOL

Uncle, you should design something for us here, I am pretty sure we all buy them. Congratulations on your design, creativity like that is a virtue.
