Summary:
The Outer Battery may only be a shadow of its former self but it is still a typical Newfoundland fishing community. The Critch family have fished there for generations and they've steeped in tradition. It takes a special breed of fishermen to survive in an area like this and the Critch's are among the few who have.

Sable Island, with its 350 wrecks, is though of as the "Graveyard of the Atlantic". However, few people know that there are more than 800 wrecks around St. Pierre and Miquelon.
