Line 66:
* [[Embarrassing Tattoo]]: Buffer on a night out decides to get another tattoo and forces Spider to come along and get one himself. Buffer (who's definitely drunk) goes to sleep in the chair while his tattoo is being done. The next day Bomber is tending to the slightly infected tattoo and it becomes clear that it isn't the tattoo Buffer wanted. Bomber corners Spider who admits that he didn't get one then realizes that he messed with Buffer's choice. It turns out that he changed it to a heart with XO in it. [[Crowning Moment of Funny|And the first person Buffer shows it to is the XO]]...Spider is very lucky not to be maimed let alone alive when Buffer is finished with him.
* [[Evil Poacher]]: In ''Under the Radar'' a foreign boat trespasses on the Australian fisheries looking for shark fin and ''only'' shark fin, because of the high price it commands from those who like shark fin soup. But they do not seem to have any intention of harvesting the meat, the leather, or the teeth. They just slice off the fins and drop the shark back in for some other critter to eat.
* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]: Most of the nicknames, Chefo is the chef, though he's also the assistant medic, CO is the '''[[Captain Obvious|'''C]]'''[[Captain Obvious|ommanding]] '''[[Captain Obvious|O]]'''[[Captain Obvious|fficer]], Swaine is the coxswain, etc.
* [[Everything's Better with Monkeys]]: 2Dads thinks so...
* [[Father Neptune]]: Charge qualifies.
Line 74:
* [[Going Down with the Ship]]: Poor Swaine nearly has this fate after a bad run in with some diamond smugglers.
* [[Good with Numbers]]: Kate and Nikki are qualified navigators. Charge, ET, 2Dads, Swaine and RO would have to be good at maths to do their jobs. Mike is implied to be but there isn't much reason for his to show it.
* [[Gunboat Diplomacy]]: Less often than you might think although ''Hammersley'' is a boat and has, well, [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|guns]] on board. Most of it'sits missions deal with normal crime. International politics does have a part, notably in the second season.
* [[Happily Married]]: Swaine
* [[Hero Worshipper]]: 2Dads has some of this to Dutchy in series 4.
