Mandy Hansen – Bio, Age
She was born in 1996 to her parents Sig Hansen (father) and June Hansen (mother).

Together with her father in their Alaskan fishing vessel, F/V Northwestern, they cruise the Bering seas during the fishing seasons and feed with their audience with intriguing crabbing explorations.
Meanwhile, she is not Sig’s biological daughter. Mandy’s mother had her and her sister Nina from a previous marriage. Sig Hansen adopted the two girls as his own after his marriage to June after which they took his last name. Crabbing in the Bering sea was never something challenging to Mandy as she has always loved water. More so, it is a way of life for the Hansens led by their father. It is important to note that Mandy was never forced into The Deadliest Catch show.
She first appeared on the show in 2009 as a guest star. She was 11 at the time and was not regarded as a full member yet. Mandy Hansen joined The Deadliest Catch in April 2014 as a Deckhand. It had been a hard decision for her mother, allowing her youngest daughter in the waters, but seeing how willing she was she okayed the idea. Her father too wanted to keep an eye on her which was why he let her into the show.
Before becoming a regular on the show, Mandy would join her father in the Northwestern vessel every summer exploring the seas with the crew. She would always look forward to the next summer after a thrilling experience on the vessel.
After becoming a part of the team she was soon assigned the position of the captain’s (Sig) righthand on the vessel. Mandy may have found herself in a male-dominated field but that did not deter her from giving it her all. One of her remarkable acts was when she helped rescue the ship from fires in her early days on the show. She has worked in the King and Opilio crab seasons and many other seasons on the show. Hansen has intentions of getting into a maritime academy and getting a license to further spread her horizon in the marine world.
