The owners of a fishing vessel featured in “Deadliest Catch” are suing the TV show’s production company and a contractor after a former crew member blamed a lack of prompt care for leaving him with serious medical problems.

Sig Hansen poses for a portrait with his boat the Northwestern docked at Ballard in Seattle, Washington, March 3, 2010. The owners of the vessel featured on Discovery Channel's"Deadliest Catch" are suing a California production company and contractor over accusations they mishandled a crew member's medical care.

Mavar was working on the Northwestern at the height of the pandemic in late December 2020 and January 2021, they say. The new lawsuit filed by the Northwestern’s owners claims that Original Productions Inc., based in Burbank, California, developed and implemented the COVID-19 protocols, then failed to manage them properly. It also charges that a subcontractor hired to handle medical services aboard the boat, Tennessee-based Trifecta Solutions LLC, failed to render appropriate care.
