Miami, Florida - Mike Rowe, host of the Discovery Channel television series "Dirty Jobs," tries his hand at removing a submerged, derelict vessel in the bug-and-creature-infested swamp of South Florida when the show's fifth season premieres this Tuesday, October 6 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Rowe will serve as an apprentice to Captains Bill Hicks, Andy Avins and Todd Seeds of TowBoatU.S. South Dade, an on-the-water recreational boat towing and recovery company that has been called in to refloat, remove and dispose of the sunken vessel that was abandoned after a hurricane and left to rot on the muddy bottom. It's a dirty job with a positive environmental impact.

The big question remains whether the soggy hull can be pulled out in one piece or will it catastrophically break apart as Rowe directs the lift operation? And what will come spewing out of the derelict's dark muddied bilge? You have to tune in to find out.

On "Dirty Jobs." Rowe travels the country to showcase the downright dirty jobs that most people would go out of their way to avoid. TowBoatU.S. South Dade, FL, is part of BoatU.S. Towing Services , the largest network of U.S., Canadian and Bahamian towing ports for recreational boaters with over 290 locations and over 600 towing assistance vessels nationwide.
