Book Synopsis The Use of Ice on Small Fishing Vessels by : Michael Shawyer
Book excerpt: The use of ice on board smaller fishing vessels is increasing, due to factors such as the growing demand for fresh fish, market globalisation and increased quality controls, and the decrease in near-shore fish resources which forces fisherman to make longer fishing trips and use ice to preserve the freshness of their catch. This publication describes the requirements for the use of ice and chilled seawater on fishing vessels, from small insulated containers in dugout canoes, to refrigerated tanks on bigger vessels.
