		The naval trawler is a concept for expeditiously converting a nation's fishing boats and fishermen to military assets.
		The larger and newer trawlers and whalers were converted for antisubmarine use and the older and smaller trawlers were converted to minesweepers.
		Small trawlers were difficult torpedo targets; and, while a U-boat might best a single trawler in a gunnery contest, it would be unable to withstand the combined attention of several trawlers.

	BSAC TRAVEL CLUB - Trip Reports - Summer Isles
		Situated on the North West coast of Scotland, the Summer Isles lie on the edge of an expanse of water known as 'the Minch'.
		Although the waters of the Summer Isles are sheltered to some extent by the Outer Hebrides across the Minch, the predominant South West and Westerly winds can result in considerable seas that crash onto the exposed shores of these rocky isles.
		This large steel trawler was apparently wrecked in 1983 and is now resting on her port side in 17 metres of water.

	U-boat Archive - U-570 - ONI Report
		In view of the better maneuvering qualities of the trawlers in the still heavy sea after several attempts to float a line to the submarine by H.M.S. BURWELL, one of the trawlers was directed to take the submarine in tow.
		The enthusiastic, but somewhat untimely, interference of the trawlers resulted in loss of control of the situation by the commanding officer of H.M.S. This interference by the trawlers very nearly resulted in the loss of the submarine and did undoubtedly result in the necessity for early beaching of the submarine.
		During the period of towing it was noted that the draft of the submarine was gradually increasing and the decision was made to beach the ship as soon as possible.

	CAPTAIN ZOOM
		These are a class of slow-moving powerboats that were originally conceived for making long ocean passages at minimal fuel burn, but which have become popular among people who never venture outside the inlet, sort of a saltier-looking houseboat.
		Unfortunately, many trawler people are former blowboters or have a sailing mindset (these folk are often easily identifiable by their silly-looking "Tilley" hats).
		Thus, while the wind fairies might be the nautical equivalent of a bicyclist wandering from lane to lane on the freeway, many trawler types can be compared to a driver motoring along the Interstate highway at 45 MPH in the fast lane with his head up and locked and his turn signal blinking.

		The radar's MARPA was once more put to good use for collision avoidance as we encountered shipping south of the Lizard, and particularly when crossing just south of the separation scheme lanes between Land's End and the Scillies.
		We arrived in St Mary's Harbour, Isles of Scilly, around 14:00 on Sunday (1 September) and made fast to one of the yellow visitors' buoys which the enlightened harbour authorities have provided.
		From the Eastern Isles, with the tide still falling we went around the south of St. Mary's, up again between St. Agnes and St. Mary's, looked briefly into Porth Cressa and on round the Garrison back to the harbour.

		And only one of its frequencies is useful in the British Isles, which means that propagation of this one frequency is an important factor.

		On 17 December, 1998, Iain Maciver, a freelance journalist from Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland, published a news report which read: PART of a military helicopter has been dragged up in nets by a trawler off the Western Isles of Scotland.
		There was speculation last night (WED) that the amazing find, reported by a French trawler, could explain the UFO seen plunging into the sea off the Isle of Lewis by several witnesses two years ago.
		We even investigated the possibility of secret testing but we drew a blank." However, the French trawler's find is bound to add to speculation that the military know more than they are saying about the mysterious incident involving the UFO on Saturday, October 26, 1996, off Ness in the north of Lewis.

		Originally the Salvesen`s had emigrated from Norway and had imported timber and whale oil onboard the vessels they owned, they set up a land-based whaling station at Olna in the Shetland Isles in 1904 which remained in service till 1929.
		By 1907 the company had started Antarctic whaling and established a base in the Falkland Islands but later moved closer to the whaling grounds and moved to South Georgia.
		This gave them the advantage of using far bigger nets and in one haul could out fish a sidewinder by 60 tons, the stern ramp also gave them the ability to fish when it was unsafe for a sidewinder to do so.

		The skipper [of the trawler] thought at first the submarine was British, but when she opened fire he immediately slackened the brake to take the weight off gear, and increased to full speed, which was about 10 knots.
		This order dealt with the classes of persons who were to be excluded from the protection of the Geneva Convention and were not to be treated as prisoners of war, but when captured were to be handed over to the SD.

		The next lesson will be about set and drift as rarely do you have such ideal sailing conditions as above and you will need to know how to factor in some of the other forces which affect your vessel’s progress toward her destination.
		If you have a motor, you should only use it when there is no wind and, when there is no wind, a small motor is enough to move you along at close to hull speed.

		Then one was netted by a fishing trawler off South Africa in 1938 - a catch that shook the scientific world and was widely regarded as the zoological find of the 20th century.
		Today's coelacanths can reach almost 2 m in length and weigh up to 68 kg, (a giant Mozambique female was 1.8 m long and 95 kg) but they are usually somewhat smaller, particularly the males, which average under 1.65 m.

		I'm in the market for a boat of this size and hull shape, but, having just returned from Trawler Fest, the boats of this size all seem to have 200+ hp monsters that have a noisy exhausts and are way more than than the 30+/-hp engine I'd need to efficiently cruise at hull speed.
		Almost all of that was present: windage (8 sailboats and our pocket trawler), draft (especially two of the larger sailboats), plus wind and current both exactly up creek at the same time.
