The Southern captains fear a full-scale Yankee invasion of their waters when another Northern boat the Pin Wheel with Captain Tyler McLaughlin comes steaming into the Outer Banks. This trip, McLaughlin is desperate to make up for the embarrassing last-place finish he landed last season, and to help him he adds Paul Hebert onboard as co-captain. As the Pin Wheel steams in, they're greeted with gunshots by the Southerners, showing there is no room for Southern hospitality.
