ProjectDevelopment of Canoe Fisheries in Sumatera, Indonesia-BOBP/WP/77 1992
Also available in:
No results found.This paper describes the developnient . technical trials, and fishing trials of larger plank—built outrigger canoes in Nias Island, Surnatera . Indonesia. The outrigger canoes were constructed during 1989. The technical and fishing trials were conducted during 1989 and 1990 in three villages in Nias Island. The purpose of the trials was to assess the technical and economic feasibilit\ of the new outrigger canoes and their acceptability to the fisherfolk. The project for development of outrigge r canoe fisheries and this paper which reports on it have been sponsored by the Bay of Bengal Programnic’s (BOBP) “Small-Scale Fisherfolk Communities in the Bay of Bengal” (GCP/RAS/118/MUL). The work was done in cooperation with the Provincial Fisheries Service of North Sumatera. Besides the authors, other BOBP and PFS officers, an FAO Consultant Boatbuilder, local carpenters and not least the fishermen were actively involved in the Project. -
Book (stand-alone)Introduction of New Outrigger Canoes in Indonesia - BOBP/REP/57 1993
Also available in:
No results found.This report gives an account of the successful attempts to develop and introduce a new type of outrigger canoe for the benefit of small-scale fisherfolk in Nias Island, North Sumatera, Indonesia. It summarizes the activities of canoe construction, training of carpenters, demonstration and long-term fishing trials and discusses the impact and prospects for further development. The work was undertaken from late 1988 till early 1993 as a subproject under BOBP’s “Small-Scale Fisherfolk Communit ies” project GCP/RAS/118/MUL. The subproject was channelled through the Provincial Fisheries Service (PFS) of North Sumatera but was, to a very large extent, an autonomous unit in Nias with a Field Assistant, Tafonaha Gulo, as the only staff. The Boatbuilder Consultant assisting in construction of prototype canoes and training of carpenters was M Savins, from Australia. -
Book (stand-alone)Small Offshore Fishing Boats in Sri Lanka - BOBP/REP/61 1993
Also available in:
No results found.The Bay of Bengal Programme (BOBP) was invited in the early Eighties by the Shri Lankan Ministry of Fisheries to evaluate the offshore fisheries and the fishing craft being used in it. The evaluation was done by a consultant, O Gulbrandsen, Naval Architect. Subsequent to this evaluation, BOBP helped to develop and introduce two small multiday offshore fishing boats, the SRL-34 and the SRL-15. When Shri Lankan fishermen began fishing further offshore, more and more boats began to disappear a t sea. The BOBP was requested to provide assistance for studying the reasons for the disappearances and to help in making recommendations for the development of search-and-rescue facilities for the island’s fishermen. A consultant (U Hallberg) studied the facilities available and prepared a report which was submitted to the Ministry of Fisheries. Similarly, another consultant (E Dahle) studied the safety aspects of boat construction and prepared a draft of regulations for consideration by the Mi nistry. This report summarizes BOBP’s assistance provided in offshore fishing boat development and related safety-at-sea aspects. The work started under the SIDA funded project “Development of Small-scale Fisheries” GCP/RAS/040/SWE and was concluded under “Small-scale Fisherfolk Communities” GCP/RAS/l18/MUL funded jointly by DANIDA and SIDA.
