I just started playing last week. This one seems like a total no-brainer as a 2nd boat. Its speed is especially nice for exploring which is still a huge issue when you've only had the junkeroo. I've at least gotten the hang of the early game enough to know to just ride cod season to your 2nd boat, but was still just sort of doing trial and error there. My first game I made the mistake of "upgrading" to the Tobie. That thing can barely make way when fully loaded... THX for the videos, man! Doing a good service to a little niche community!
Arthur you forget to mention one thing. With the whole going down the line putting the make crab in then going to the top again can get tedious. I found a slight quicker way. You can click on the table to drop the male in the barrel then just go down the line. It's only slightly different but it does help
Arthur, a crabbing boat like the selfy has to keep the crabs in water filled live wells or in water filled barrels in the case of the selfy. (i believe regulations say you have to store them as fully processed frozen crab or as live crab, dead ones bring a drastically reduced price if they are not processed and frozen. also, i think the king crab season is very short, so, just like the old new england fishing schooners, there is a race to the crabbing grounds and a race back to port, because the first boats in get the best prices
Thats correct! I believe king crabs are like Lobsters, you have to store them alive in water(In sweden many fishermen store them in cages bi their docking spot under the water) or cook them then freeze them. A lobster that isn’t boiled and has been dead for a while is actually dangerous to eat as they get bacteria i think
Well, I like your info, I like the way you present said info, and I like that you dont try to hide the fact that you have a life outside of your TH-cam channel. You sir have earned a new subscriber! Keep it up! I'll see you again soon!
Make a 8 trap line go to port go at your fishing spot again but make sure its been 10h in the water and put another 8trap beside in this way you can fish non stop make money faster less travel sorry for my english
THANK YOU. I have been scouring the web looking for why my crew member would only hand-gut while I’m crabbing. The Selfa was my first real boat and nowhere does the explain that crew member functions are boat-dependent.
Just a few upgrades to engine and you could outrun Arleigh Burke class destroyer and Ticonderoga class cruiser with Selfy. Even nonupgraded versions can overwhelmingly outrun anything Norwegian Coast Guard has...
@@kingarthursims I dont really know anything about fishing vessels (except what very little have I learned from this game). I only know something about....warships.
Ok this is weird. The boat is saying storage is full and I still have two pots to collect with crabs ? Why ??? Developer. Can't collect all 8 full pots in the barrels ????
wierd - If I am not mistaken the crabs don't use the ship inventory, but use crates that are stored on the deck... Its been a long time though and I wish I could help you more.
Hey Arthur. I just got started on this today and am loving it. You videos really helped get things moving along and shortened the learning curve. I am at a snag though. I have the Selfy boat and have successfully done some crabbing. Problem is, I can't figure out how to line fish or net fish with this boat. Is there a secret to switching modes on this thing? I can't buy lines or bait. BTW, I am using this on a Nintendo Switch, in case that is relevant. Can you help me out?
its been a while - I believe you have to go into port - go into the ship upgrade section and select line fishing or net fishing to be mounted on the boat. It will remove the crab tackle and install the crane needed for lines and nets. You can only do one type at a time - hope that makes sense. Once you have installed the line or net gear, you must go into town and buy some lines or nets. I think net fishing is a bit easier, but its more random as you don't use bait. With line fishing you can target certain breeds with certain bait types.
Also, I’m sure you know this by now, but the crab pots should soak for 20hrs and map markers will turn blue for a period of time. That’s when you can pull in some 100% full pots (in good spots).
Hi great video thanks. I just got back into the game and plan to buy this boat next. i have sjarken and hope crabs will make enough to buy vibeke katrin. I plan to play this alongside the new game. fishing north atlantic for offshore large boats and this for inshore.
I know I'm a bit late to rhe party, I just bought this game, and want to thank you for reviewing all the boats. As usual I started with "Grandpa's" boat and got around 150,000 kr, then was thinking about a loan for the Selfa, then realized the Cod "season" opened (prices were up) so I started fishing cod and ended up with enough money to buy the Selfa with cash, and after getting barrels, traps and bait, I was at 3,000 kr. Thought I might need a loan but on my first crap trip (the reason I got the Selfa), I had one trap with 87 and I couldn't pick up the last two I was full. So now the the boat is "Li'L Bit Crabbie" (named it after my wife...Oh, HI dear when did you come in?....Just kidding) So I'm now sitting on over 2 million and still only have the two boats. Love that this boat does longlines, nets, and crab, Thanks for the suggestion to buy this. I did have some grinding to open new fishing spots with the original boat, but it paid off !!! One comment I will make though the steering at high speed is fun but at times a pain in the neck!
My first crab run with the "Lemme take a Selfie" went awry. Somehow I put an empty pot into the water and hit it with the boat dealing 96% damage. I think Ill skip crabbing until I get a bigger boat and undo the Selfie purchase and go with the Shark and 2 helpers so hopefully they can do almost everything. I love to delegate. Edit: 316K for that catch has me second guessing myself! Fortunately I can afford both boats!!
@@michaeljones3915 lol rereading my spelling. I must've been drunk. Hahaha. I run the Platinum with ol Jorgenson I'm the bay! And Used to cod with Kirby! On the Caution!
The Nintendo switch version includes all the DLC in the price. The PC version has a few seperate DLCs and now we have fishing North Atlantic which is the newest version of the game.
It wont. The devs are now working on Fishing: North Atlantic out next year so this title is now in maintenance mode. Good chance the game next year wont be on consoles either. Multiplayer has already been said to not be coming. A small DLC might stil come out for this title next year if they feel hype is needed for the new title.
Played for prob 2 hours, got around $110K, took a $100K loan and then did a $60k long run in the first boat, took out another $300k loan, bought the Selty, upgraded motor once, radar all the way, brought it my first crab run at 900kg and got around $190K, went back out after re upping, had 1740kg of crabs, fast travel to home, boat glitches in port. “Your boat is destroyed” Best part is that you still have the loans and a shit vessel again - might as well restart.... Unreal.
When you’re trying to be a TH-cam sensation but you’re also a parent 😂
You should watch the Svalbard video where I dump coffee all over myself.

Is it really that fast in real life? lol - most likely not.

@@kingarthursims We though have a reason to suspect the devs merely decided to reward the DLC purchasers generously. Realism be damned.
This boat is called speedsjark, and makes +/-20 knots not 30+🤔🤣

The background drama was the best part

Yes - that is correct - I think I mentioned that in the video.
Thank you, great video. Love the background goings on. Lol
Kids and Dogs lol
Hi great video thanks. I just got back into the game and plan to buy this boat next. i have sjarken and hope crabs will make enough to buy vibeke katrin. I plan to play this alongside the new game. fishing north atlantic for offshore large boats and this for inshore.
Looking forward to FNA - gonna be fun for sure.
Arthur Chapman Yes i look forward to your series on the new game. 😀

Yeah - steering is "debatable" lol
how do i launch my dlc for this game????
Im late to the party im sure its known by now but the sjarken will most certainly jump out in bad weather too
🤣🤣 parenting 101....fight to the death, I'm busy 🤣🤣🤣. Playing as I type this lol 🤙
lol - IKR
Thank you for this arthur. Finnaly learned how it worked :D
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the video and your hilarious at the same time cheers
Glad you enjoyed :)
Just got this on gamepass played a bit got a loan to buy this just about to do my 2nd net run definitely going to do crabs now
Very great boat - definintely the best "early earner" in the game.
Good video buddy, got a quick question, is there another way to unlock the map other than riding around in a boat?
Not that I know of - the best ship to do it in is the Lunar Bow or the Hermes, but the Vibeke isn't bad either.
@@kingarthursims I appreciate ya bub, I noticed you mentioned unlocking the map a few times so I figured I'd ask.
This is a great boat for exploring the map.
Its fast
My first crab run with the "Lemme take a Selfie" went awry. Somehow I put an empty pot into the water and hit it with the boat dealing 96% damage.

Edit: 316K for that catch has me second guessing myself! Fortunately I can afford both boats!!
IKR - it brings in a LOT of money and is easy to run
Check out real life Bristol bay boats. My boat has a 450hp lugger and is set up to dungee fish(crab) and gillbet salmon!
Right on man i commercial fish also just dungie and salmon
@@michaeljones3915 lol rereading my spelling. I must've been drunk. Hahaha. I run the Platinum with ol Jorgenson I'm the bay! And Used to cod with Kirby! On the Caution!
17 hour set
My 1st catch of crab was 332
Kr 403,160
Hi. Mine was 333 Kr 403,161 snarf snarf smug smug.
Do you make alot of money when catching king crab?
I don't remember specifically what amount you make, but its definitely a lot of money. Like it pays for the boat way before you reach quota.
@@kingarthursims Im still trying to make it out of grandads I must suck ive been grinding for 2 days
im trying to get the sjarken
@@kingarthursims How long did it take you until you got the lunar?
Is the game online? Or any dlc

Hi im from norway and i love this game
its so relaxing.
@@kingarthursims Yea
I have a question, is the game bug fixed yet?
Mostly - it still has some
Steel with bugs in sept 2020 (for this boat). To bad.
nice vid
So radar shows boats and obstacles not fish.
Norway: “Hammerfest” me: ham fest
lol
Think this will ever come to console
It could for sure. they have added console controller controls to it, so its possible.
It wont. The devs are now working on Fishing: North Atlantic out next year so this title is now in maintenance mode. Good chance the game next year wont be on consoles either. Multiplayer has already been said to not be coming. A small DLC might stil come out for this title next year if they feel hype is needed for the new title.
Out for consoles 10th December mate
