Shrimpers like Chris and Jacqui gamble their lives each night in the Gulf of Mexico, where they must avoid invisible rocks that rip the bottoms off boats. Lightning fries navigation systems, and storms sweep men off deck. Their only connections to the rest of the world are radios and unreliable cellular phone reception.And the shrimpers themselves are notorious, too.
