Former CM deckhand, Corey Eisenbarth on “After the Catch”.
I’m sure you all remember Corey Eisenbarth from his time on the Cornelia Marie and his recent appearance on “After The Catch,” which airs Tuesday evenings after “Deadliest Catch.”
The biggest thing that sticks out in your mind when you think of Corey might be his harrowing story of being shipwrecked in 1983 on the unfortunate F/V Seahawk. A few weeks ago, I interviewed Corey at his home town of Astoria, Oregon. I got an inside look into the terrifying scenario that is every fisherman’s worst nightmare.
“The boat rolled over and was upside down within twenty minutes but it took about four hours to fully sink…We spent the whole night in the water and we could see the rescue choppers flying about us. They didn’t think that we were in the debris…”
Listen to Corey tell the whole story of how he helped save the lives of a few of his fellow crewmen by creating a makeshift raft out of debris and in the exclusive videotaped interview with Corey Eisenbarth.
Stay tuned to Corneliamarie.com to for the first installment of our exlusive interview with Corey Eisenbarth. We will also bring you information about Freddy Maugatai, fellow Cornelia Marie deckhand and good friend of Corey.

Corey Eisenbarth happens to be a personal friend of mine and he is a WONDERFUL person. Anyone who knows Corey personally knows that he is a stand up guy and that this person cannot possibly know him. And Ms. Callie Girl can’t possibly know Morgan because MORGAN IS A MAN! So now how funny is that?
