Deck Equipments for Fishing Vessel

Purse seine and trawl fishing vessel were mainly investigated in this study. total length and breadth of fishing vessel investigated are changing between 12m and50m for loa; 4m and 15m for breadth, respectively. as well as the positive contribution to the hunting operations of the deck-mounted equipment to netting lifting systems, winches, cranes, the davits and fish pump; with the increase of fishing vessel’s length, it is observed that; there is no structural changes of mechanization but there is changing in size and number. especially in the fishing vessels over 20 m has been determined that there is more intensive use of these mechanization. it is indicated that, especially derrick equipment which are used in purse seine lift systems give place to crane system which is working with hydraulic that can swivel 180˚ and according that changes; the work done by the team of 3-4 people is determined to become done with 1-2 people.
