When Måløy Fishing School in Norway commissioned a new training ship that could run on a hybrid motor system while meeting the fishing industry’s rigorous demands – our partners Vest-El came straight to us. With the Danfoss Drives VACON® NXP System Drive and our market-leading expertise, Vest-El and Hvide Sande Shipyard have built a next-gen fishing vessel to educate the fishermen of tomorrow. To help meet the IMO’s goal to reduce shipping emissions by 50% by 2050, the fishing industry must embrace decarbonization technology. The new hybrid-driven Skulebas training ship benefits from reduced diesel consumption, modern electrified solutions, and a better working environment due to reduced noise and air pollution. Plus, the students at Måløy Fishing School learn to navigate the latest technology and set sail for greener waters.

VESSEL REVIEW: Barrack Point Enterprises (BPE), a company formed by two Irish fishing families, has taken delivery of a new fishing vessel built by Mooney Boats. The 27.38-metre (89.83-foot) 'Wave Crest' utilises a design by Danish engineering firm Vestværftet and is equipped to perform either pelagic trawling or demersal fishing via trawling and seining, focusing on species such as herring, mackerel, cod, haddock, and hake. The brief set forth by BPE included criteria such as a vessel that stayed within the constraints on gross tonnage dictated by licence entitlements; a hull that maximises fuel efficiency for more economical operations and a lower carbon footprint; a greater carrying capacity to reduce the number of trips needed to satisfy quotas; a stable and safe working platform for the crew even under adverse weather conditions off the west coast of Ireland; and the ability to incorporate three different fishing methods (pelagic pair trawling, Danish seining/flyshooting, and single boat trawling) in one vessel (and to easily switch among the three) to maximise opportunities. Able to manoeuvre efficiently in varying sea conditions, the vessel can support extended-duration fishing trips while prioritising crew safety and comfort. Equipped with advanced navigation and communication systems, the vessel can operate effectively in harsh maritime environments. These technologies ensure precise positioning for optimal fishing, enhance operational safety by improving situational awareness, and enable real-time monitoring of fishing activities.

VESSEL REVIEW: Norwegian family-owned pelagic fishing company Havsnurp has expanded its fleet with the recent acquisition of a new trawler built by Karstensens Skibsværft of Denmark. The third vessel to be acquired by the company has also been named 'Havsnurp', and it replaces a similarly named Karstensens-built vessel that had been in the owner’s fleet since 2012. Like its predecessor, the new 'Havsnurp' will primarily be used to trawl for mackerel and herring but may also be deployed for catching whitefish and other industrial species such as capelin, sandeel, silver smelt, and Norway pout. The deck machinery includes electrically-driven winches, fish pumping equipment, cranes, and net drums. The winch system is designed for continuous use aided by PTO from the main engine and the shaft generator. The winches can operate on full power without relying on the main engine, the latter therefore being freed up for propulsion and electrical power supply for the other onboard systems. However, should the main engine also be needed for additional winch power, the auxiliary engines have ample capacity for shouldering the vessel’s normal electrical supply.

#IfYouOwn a Fishing Boat or #RunaFishingBusiness, Don't Miss This Post! Did you know that a Fishing Boats must be built with a #MarineEngine, because they are out into the vast sea, must be afloat for many days, with heavy seafood loaded, also have to prepared to deal with natural disasters, high waves, or storms that may occur. Safety for the crews and the seafood catch required engine's reliability to return all safely to the shore. Many times, we have found that fishing boats use land-based engines that been modified to be Marine Engine or come with 2nd hand that is whether be doubted in safety, due to cost. BUT Have you heard about Cummins special program? #ReConMarineEngine that could helps you :* 🐟 Get a genuine Cummins Marine Engine. 🐟 Reconditioned by the Cummins factory. 🐟 100% Genuine Cummins Parts. 🐟 Full-term warranty, starting from day 1, like buying a brandnew 🐟 Included, old engines can be exchanged for a discount Before buying a modified or second-hand engine, #WouldYouLikeToTalk about Cummins ReCon Marine Engine first? *for more info, contact us today: https://lnkd.in/g_qiNFqW

Variables such as your heading (up-sea or down-sea), weak or strong currents you must cross, winds that vary in direction and strength, and the height of wave swells all affect your offshore #trolling speed daily

VESSEL REVIEW: Norwegian seafood company Atlantic Seafish, via subsidiary Polarbris, recently took delivery of a new seiner/trawler designed and built by Danish shipbuilder Karstensens Skibsværft. The vessel, which is also named 'Polarbris' (“Polar Breeze”), will be homeported in Alesund and will be used as a Danish seiner and netter for groundfish in addition to catching snow crab. This was in fulfilment of owner Polarbris’ requirement for a vessel that is capable of working with different types of fishing gear. The vessel was designed with its carbon footprint as one of the key considerations, hence the inclusion of such features as a highly efficient powerplant, a slow-revving propeller, and a 600kWh battery pack. The propulsion setup also includes a 500kW retractable azimuthing thruster and 190kW side thrusters. The owner selected a retractable thruster for installation as the concept has been proven during operations in bad weather. Specifically, the thruster can be used to provide limited propulsive power in place of the main propeller during certain activities, such as when the crew are pulling nets, or for positioning the vessel. The winches, the net drums, and the other deck equipment are electrically-driven to help reduce emissions. The electric deck equipment also contributes to efficiency, as the vessel will operate for much of the time as a seine netter with the winches running almost continuously. Three of the winches can be used for twin-rig trawling of whitefish and shrimp. Full article link in comments.
