Learning Outcomes

  • It gives the idea of how the fishing craft has been developed from the ancient time, different types of powers used for propulsion of fishing craft, limitations of indigenous craft and advantages of mechanized craft.
  • It briefs about the factors influences for fishing craft development, viz., topographical factor, geographical and physical factors etc., It describe about classification fishing craft with respect to various factors such as depth of operation, size of the vessel and duration of voyage etc.,
  • It gives the information about traditional fishing crafts of different states of India like Gujarath, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamilnadu etc., It describe about the mechanization of fishing craft from traditional craft to mechanized fishing vessel in India.

Course Syllabus

Theory

Introduction: History & development of fishing crafts. Traditional fishing crafts of India. Classification of fishing crafts based on fabrication dimension, nature of fishing, depth of operation. History & development of mechanization of fishing crafts. Basic geometric concepts and important terminologies of fishing vessel. Form coefficients, properties of irregular shapes Calculation of longitudinal and transverse sectional area of fishing craft by using Trapezoidal rule and Simpson’s rules. State of equilibrium; Volume of displacement; centre of gravity (CG); centre of buoyancy (CB); vertical centre of gravity (VCB); longitudinal centre of gravity (LCB). Stability of fishing vessels-longitudinal and transverse. Various equilibrium of ships-stable, unstable and neutral; Light weight, Dead weight, Tonnage system; Gross Registered Tonnage (GRT), Net Registered Tonnage (NRT). Boat building materials: Choice of construction materials: Wood, properties, advantages and disadvantages. Deck fitting. Maintenance oif fishing vessels. Fouling and boring organisms; seasoning and preservation of wood. Constructional details of boat: Offset tables; Mould lofting; Backbone assembly of wooden boat. Constructional details of Steel, FRP, Ferro Cement and Aluminum boats.
