Captain Billy Tyne: [in the bridge of the Andrea Gail] Skip, what are we gonna do about those numbers? They suck.

Bobby Shatford: 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.

Captain Billy Tyne: It's not that, Skip. I'm out here because I need the money.

Bobby Shatford: You know, last trip I thought you had something to offer. But you know, you're just a punk.

Captain Billy Tyne: Hey, you promised me a shitload of fish!

Bobby Shatford: 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!

Bobby Shatford: [in the bridge of the Andrea Gail] I got a woman who I can't stand to be two feet away from.

Captain Billy Tyne: Son, you've got a problem.

Linda Greenlaw: [in the bridge of the Andrea Gail] I saw your guys loading bait. You doing a turnaround?

Captain Billy Tyne: No rest for the weary.

Linda Greenlaw: There you go. Flaunting your work ethic.

Captain Billy Tyne: I don't have a work ethic. I just have work... If I'm going to catch up to you.

Bobby Shatford: [in the bridge of the Andrea Gail] So, what are you so happy about?

Captain Billy Tyne: You just caught me on a good night. I'm doing what I was made to do - and I've got a feeling I'm going to do it even better this time.

[the Andrea Gail is climbing a gigantic wave]

Captain Billy Tyne: C'MON, YOU BITCH!
