Career
Hansen began as a deckhand on his father's boat before he was a teenager, and he worked his way up the ranks. He became a "relief skipper" on the Northwestern, as well as doing short-haul stints on other boats in the fleet at age 22. He began running the Northwestern full-time at the age of 24. Over the years, the boat has established itself as a top manufacturer with a stellar safety record; it has never had a single death at sea during the previous 20 years Hansen has been in command of the Bering Sea fleet; its serious injury rate has been noticeably lower than other boats in the Bering Sea fleet as well. The Northwestern captured the final derby seasons in 2005, both the highest poundage caught and the most money earned between the featured boats in the Deadliest Catch, both in 2005 and 2006. Hansen is the full captain of king and opilio crab seasons as well as the Northwestern's pot cod fishery. Edgar and Norman, his younger brothers, are deck boss and deckhand respectively.
Hansen published his book in March 2010 (co-written with Mark Sundeen) North By Northwestern: A Seafaring Family on Deadly Alaskan Waters, which hit the New York Times and Wall Street Journal's bestseller list.
Hansen appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on April 29, 2010. During the audition, he expressed his desire to be a contestant on the new season of ABC reality television show Dancing with the Stars. Leno's workers created a Facebook fan page to encourage him to be chosen for the competition. Hansen also confirmed in September that he would not return to Deadliest Catch's seventh season. However, Hansen would return to the show in October 2010.
In the Disney Pixar film Cars 2, he portrayed a boat named Crabby (modeled after the Northwestern). In the 14th season of The Celebrity Apprenticeship, he competed.
Hansen was inducted into the Scandinavian-American Hall of Fame in 2014, as well as Tonight Show bandleader Doc Severinsen and singer Bobby Vee.
