Contessi Launches Fresher Trawler for Arbumasa

February 10, 2022 International News

According to Domingo Contessi, F/V Huafeng 827 is much similar to the recently launched fresher F/V Antonia D, a multipurpose double-decked trawler with steel hull and aluminum superstructure. ‘But there are a few differences. Antonia D has electric winches, while Huafeng 827 has a hydraulic winch system,’ he said. The new trawler has two Berycar GPH-6L trawl winches, two net drums from the same supplier, plus a mooring winch. He added that the fishroom capacity and the internal layout are also different in the new vessel. Video’s, photos, >click to read< 15:28

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing. Hence the term “overfished.” Hence the mandated knee jerk reaction of the fisheries managers to not enough fish; cut back on fishing. What of other factors? They don’t count. It’s all about fishing, because fishing is all that the managers can control; it’s their Maslow’s Hammer. When it comes to the oceans it seems as if it’s about all that the industry connected mega-foundations that support the anti-fishing ENGOs with hundreds of millions of dollars a year in “donations” are interested in controlling.
