MAIB Releases Report into F/V Angelena Capsize off Exmouth

August 1, 2024 International, International News

A The Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) investigation report into the sinking of a 14-metre-long trawler eight nautical miles south-east of Exmouth, England turned up major concerns regarding the understanding of stability performance, the dangers of operating a fishing vessel alone and the proper installation of safety equipment. On June 18, 2021, the fishing vessel Angelena (BM271) capsized and sank approximately 8 nautical miles southeast of Exmouth, England. The vessel was operated by its lone skipper who managed to escape and was rescued after spending 40 minutes in the water. The MAIB conducted a thorough investigation into the incident to uncover the underlying causes and provide recommendations to prevent similar occurrences in the future. more, >>CLICK TO READ<< 07:53

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.
