The warrior boat captains and there crew face this everyday in the winter months. This is where the story begins on Great Lake Warriors.

The tugboat captains featured are Captains John Selvick, Mike Ojard, Ted Long, Nathan Schley, and Stan Dawson. Each of them and there crews not fighting each other but rather the storms and ice of the great lakes. Each boat must successfully get their haul across the border to the final destination without damage or sinking.
