Summary:
Fogo Island Boats -- Three fishermen from Fogo Island have taken the biggest gamble of their lives.

Follow the boats from the shipyard to the fishing grounds.
Downhomer -- In Brampton, Ontario, The Downhomer newspaper is published by Ron Young, a Toronto cop from Twillingate. Like a letter from home, it reaches the hearts of 40,000 Newfoundlanders all across Canada and the United States.
