NewStandard: 5/12/97 The 83-foot fishing vessel, the region's first commercial stern trawler, was retired yesterday, one of better than two dozen New Bedford fishing vessels in line to be taken out of the industry under the federal government's $23 million fishing vessel buyback program. The 83-foot fishing vessel, the region's first commercial stern trawler, was retired yesterday, one of more than two dozen New Bedford fishing boats in line to be taken out of the industry under the federal government's $23 million buyback program. As it's name implies, a stern trawler sets and retrieves its fishing nets from the stern, a quicker, more efficient method of operating than the so called Eastern rig, or side trawler design which was a virtual blueprint of the industry back in the 1960s. www.s-t.com /daily/05-97/05-12-97/a01lo009.htm

ANNEXES1 The design of the trawler was prepared for the specific fishing conditions prevailing in Veraval, a fishing centre in the State of Gujarat, and is appropriate for the illustration of specific features of a ferrocement craft. Compared with traditional wooden trawlers of similar size, the ferrocement craft is more stable, has higher freeboard, greater endurance, a more powerful winch, a bigger, insulated fish hold, a larger engine and a more efficient deck arrangement for fishing operations. This section covers the costs of producing the 12.8 m ferrocement trawler. www.fao.org /docrep/003/v9468e/v9468e0e.htm

A Diary of Danger on the Seas Woodbury loads more than $500 in groceries over deep snowdrifts to provision the boat for the crew of four on the 87’ commercial stern trawler as preparations are made for a ten day trip. Woodbury’s first reaction is to throw his sharp gutting knife into a corner, "No sense having that in your hand when you are tumbling around in the water." Fula shouts in fear as the wave hits, "I’m going," believing that the wave might take him over the side. Thompson catches the mooring line at the stern and Woodbury jumps aboard the ELM as it eases away from the pier. www.aliciapatterson.org /APF2001/Dotter/Dotter.html

New Page 0 A major concern to local recreational fishos and community groups is the displacement of effort from other closed areas resulting in even greater commercial exploitation of the bay which has already seen a 300 per cent increase in beam trawler activity over the last two years (official DPI website data). The background, behind the political deals done over Repulse Bay involving the commercial lobby, local federal member and the environment minister are now a matter of public record and have been raised in Parliament. Recreational and commercial users have long been at loggerheads over the most appropriate levels of use for this area. www.ansa.com.au /repulse.htm   (589 words)

Platform for June 2000 - Miller Freeman Fishing operations match those of the commercial trawler fleet. The ship is a Pacific stern trawler that conducts stern trawling operations in water depths up to 1,250 meters, mid-water up to 1,100 meters, and over-the-side sampling. These projects include hydro-acoustic fish estimation and groundfish stock surveys in the Bering Sea, Alaskan waters and off the Pacific West Coast; weather and seas monitoring; and deploying surface and subsurface moorings. www.nc.noaa.gov /platforms/jun00mf.html   (589 words)

RECREATIONAL FISHING Use of commercial fishing gear, borrowed from a friend or neighbour, such as a trawler or gill net, is not uncommon. The areas where recreational and commercial fishermen fish are the same and the fish targeted are also the same. While this is an attempt to reduce overlap in fishing areas, other concerns need to be addressed: the restriction of sales by recreational fishermen; the incorporation of recreational catches in assessments of the status of the fish stocks of concern; and the increased fishing effort through the development of charter boats. www.nalis.gov.tt /Sport/sport_recreational_fishing.html   (589 words)

SW Maritime History - Articles - Icelandic Patrol 18 February - 2 March 1976 The RN ships could not easily communicate with them over the radio since the Icelanders were able to monitor the commercial channels that were available so confidential matters were passed by message instead and the dispatch bags dropped to the trawlermen using the aircraft's search and rescue winch. Very soon the fishermen were complaining that the Icelandic coast guard vessels (ICGV) were interfering with their work and, indeed, cutting the warps - the two ropes that attach the trawl net to the trawler - causing thousands of pounds of damage and lost working time. Several frigates had been involved in serious collisions with the coastguard vessels which were, in the main, robust little diesel-engined ships, mostly modern and built for the job, (although one was a converted trawler) and, perhaps importantly for them, never very far away from their homeland and shelter. www.swmaritime.org.uk /article.php?articleid=339&atype=a   (4133 words)

The Nature Conservancy - Save of the Week: The Nature Conservancy and Partners Protect Underwater Habitat Chris Kubiak, a trawler who played a lead role in developing the compromise, said, “We’ve shown we can all work together to protect both the environment and commercial fishing. A plan by The Nature Conservancy and its partners to ban bottom trawling in more than 3.8 million acres of ocean off the coast of Central California was adopted by the Pacific Fishery Management Council last week, paving the way for an innovative trawler buy-back program to be implemented by the Conservancy and Environmental Defense. The Nature Conservancy and Environmental Defense will work with trawlers who keep their permits to monitor and document changes in the underwater community over the next several years. www.nature.org /success/art15728.html   (626 words)

River Class Fleet Minesweepers (MSF) When HM Ships St. David and Venturer were withdrawn from service, a new class of fleet minesweepers, based on a commercial trawler design was developed. In 1978 two trawlers were chartered by the Ministry of Defence (MoD) to operate with the Royal Navy Reserve (RNR) as deep sea minesweepers. Unlike the Hunt Class, which is designed principally for coastal work, the River Class was intended to operate in deep water and ocean environments, if necessary for long periods of time without support. www.btinternet.com /~warship/Postwar/Mine/river.htm   (780 words)

EPA: Federal Register: Endangered and Threatened Species; Final Endangered Status for a Distinct Population Segment of Smalltooth Sawfish (Pristis pectinata) in the United States Although smalltooth sawfish held non-commercially in captivity at the time of listing are exempt from certain prohibitions, the individual animals are considered listed and afforded most of the protections of the ESA, including most importantly the prohibition against injuring or killing. Quantitative data are limited, but indicate that smalltooth sawfish have been taken by commercial fishermen and that this species has experienced severe declines in its abundance. Mote Marine Laboratory records documented a smalltooth sawfish taken in a shrimp trawler and one caught on a long-line off the coast of Florida, in 2002.(Simpfendorfer, pers. www.epa.gov /fedrgstr/EPA-SPECIES/2003/April/Day-01/e7786.htm   (780 words)

Institut Mediterrani d'Estudis Avançats - Seminar Announcement Preview Fieldwork was conducted on board commercial bottom trawlers (demersal fishery with diurnal activity) and purse seiners (pelagic fishery with nocturnal activity), as well as during experimental trawling surveys. A bioenergetic model estimated that 40.8% of the energy obtained by the Balearic shearwater population comes from trawler discards during the breeding season (March to June), although this value was subject to strong variability (±36.2% SD). Balearic shearwaters captured discards by diving at some distance behind fishing vessels, thus reducing interactions with other seabirds. www.imedea.csic.es /physdept/publications/showpaper_en.php?indice=688   (780 words)

Bernie Ecclestone: Interview Ecclestone was born in Suffolk in October 1930, the son of a trawler skipper who moved to the Kent fringes of London when Bernie was eight.

Shipwreck - National Park Service - Cape Hatteras National Seashore - Outer Banks One of the Outer Banks' most recent shipwrecks, the Lois Joyce was a 100-foot commercial fishing trawler lost in 1981 while attempting to enter Oregon Inlet during a December storm. Though the vast majority of area wrecks have broken up and are lost to the sea forever, divers have access to a variety of sunken vessels offshore. Many island residents made a substantial part of their living salvaging cargoes (a practice known as "wrecking") and dozens of local buildings were built entirely or in part from shipwreck timbers. www.nps.gov /caha/shipwreck.htm   (872 words)
