Active Fishing
Need for nutrition
Marine fisheries have grown strong in size and efficiency over the decades. Trawling constitutes an important part of this sector and provides high quality seafood. Through technological improvements (digitalization in detection, automation in catch and processing and improvement on storage and product quality preservation) and behavioral changes, the fishing sector can substantially decrease the damage to aquatic ecosystems, reduce emissions and lower its fuel costs. It is our responsibility to fulfil this need.

The Damen Wet fish trawler is ideal for fishing with the ‘flyshooting’ method. This is a special method which significantly reduces the requirement to drag the net through the water, allowing the use of a smaller engine.
