I agree...

When Discovery was doing lobster wars, it was something like 5 or 10k... I can't imagine a smaller network is paying 70K

The big established Fairhaven boat(s) saw 10k, the young guns running around, not so much.

This was a big, established boat, not from Fairhaven, who told them to go screw...

Each boat is paid a small sum per episode aired. 10 weeks, not sure how many times it's re-aired weekly, 4 ?
Obviously they are hoping it takes off like American Chopper & Deadliest catch and the $ will come later.
They are some making $ off selling tshirts & merchandise also.
