The crew of the Saltchuck watch as Knifehead rises from the water.

The Saltchuck is a civilian fishing vessel operating out of Anchorage, Alaska.[1][2]

History[]

On February 29, 2020, the crew of the Saltchuck got caught in a storm brewing over Anchorage. At the mercy of the turbulent seas, they attempted to find a place where they could take shelter from the storm.[2][1] In their search, they discovered an "island" about ten miles away from the coast and started debating among themselves as to whether they wanted to take shelter there. However, they realized too late that the "island" was actually the Kaiju Knifehead when it started moving towards them.

Upon emerging from the sea, Knifehead spotted the Saltchuck and prepared to attack it. However, before it could make a move, the Jaeger Gipsy Danger arrived on the scene and quickly moved the boat out of harm's way. The crew of the Saltchuck watched on as Gipsy Danger seemingly defeated Knifehead and were nearly crushed when the Kaiju severed the Jaeger's left arm from its body.

After Gipsy Danger finally killed Knifehead for good, Raleigh Becket, the Jaeger's sole surviving pilot, overheard radio chatter from a morning radio show that informed him that the Saltchuck had survived in one piece.[2][1]
