    This report gives details of a course in Fishing Vessel Design given at the Fisheries Technical High School, Tegal, Indonesia, from 12 to 31 January 1976, inclusive. The content of the course was designed to assist Planners, i.e. those directly and indirectly concerned with fisheries and fishing vessels, in making informed, sound decisions with respect to procuring, maintaining and operating fishing vessels. While it was in no way intended to produce trained naval architects, the participants w ere introduced to much of the skill, methodology, technology, and foundation knowledge used by naval architects, including physical principles, methods of calculation, design considerations, lines and arrangements, building materials and methods, laws and regulations, economics, and safety. Emphasis was placed upon sketching as a means of communication. Field trips were made to inspect steel and wood shipyards and a modern fishing vessel.

    This paper summaries a study on the availability and prices of materials used to construct the hulls of fishing craft for the important small-scale fisheries of the East Coast of India. The paper should be of interest to development planners, legislators and administrators. Builders of fishing craft, suppliers of materials, and owners and prospective owners of fishing craft may also find useful the information on trends in prices and availability of boatbuilding materials and the possibilities o f alternative materials. The study covered the following boatbuilding materials: timber for kattumarams and boats; fibre-reinforced plastics; ferrocement; steel; and aluminium, which is used forsheathing wooden hulls and is also a construction material in its own right. The study was carried out by Matsyasagar Consultancy Services Private Limited under contract to the Programme for the Development of Small-Scale Fisheries in the Bay of Bengal, GCP/RAS/040/SWE (usually abbreviated to th e Bay of Bengal Programme). The Programme is executed by the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) and funded by the Swedish International Development Authority (SIDA). The main aims of the Bay of Bengal Programme are to develop and demonstrate technologies by which the conditions of small-scale fishermen and the supply of fish from the small-scale sector may be improved, in five of the countries bordering the Bay of Bengal — Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, Sri Lanka an d Thailand.

    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.
