hey say lasting change comes from within. And from where I sit, that applies to commercial fi shing boats, as well. One only has to look down in the engine room of a new, repowered, or refit boat to witness the beginning of a revolution in the way this industry runs. Boats & Gear Editor Paul Molyneaux reviews the year’s new diesel lineup, including some significant innovations in natural gas and hybrid electric power. See the full story on page 18.

The Killer (on the cover) has already hit the grounds running, and the team that built her is excited to open the Bristol Bay season with a work of art. Read the full story of how the Killer came to be, on page 26. We write a lot about the technical aspects of fi shing — from gear types to boatbuilding. But the global seafood market is pushing for the fi shing industry to answer questions about crew lives and specifically labor practices.

affect seafood sales as well as questions being asked of suppliers throughout the chain. Most importantly, it’s an opportunity for Alaska seafood and indeed all domestic suppliers to shine in a somewhat murky global marketplace. Read more on page 6. As the whole world shifts around us, it can be easy to feel disoriented by the rapid changes we see just over the horizon. Sometimes the best option is to keep focused on what’s in front of us in this moment. That’s exactly what Our House columnist Lori French and her husband Jeff did when the F/V Langosta II was sidelined for much of the year. They hatched a new plan that turned a captain into a chicken tender. Lori’s Pandemic Survival: Part II is on page 8. Now that the summer is under way, we are all wishing you a safe and successful season. Keep your eyes on the prize!

Support: Keep Finfish Free t’s been a year like no other … for so many, and particularly seafood businesses. When the pandemic hit, restaurant closures and months-long lockdowns rocked the entire food system. We watched our fishing friends and colleagues suffer through the drop in consumer demand as restaurants sat empty and prices fell to an all-time low. This, while grappling with increasing long-term impacts to fisheries resulting from a changing climate. Now our government is serving up new threats to the waters and environment we rely on, and we just can’t handle any more losses. Last year, the Trump administration issued an executive order authorizing federal agencies to rush the development of industrial finfish aquaculture facilities offshore all around the country, with specific emphasis on the West Coast and Gulf of Mexico. The Biden administration is seemingly continuing this program. For instance, NOAA, the agency tasked with regulating U.S. fisheries, started building the infrastructure for a new program to manage industrial finfish aquaculture in the Pacific Islands by rushing an environmental assessment of the region. These facilities use huge net pens to raise fish in marine waters. Hundreds of thousands of fish eat and excrete while trapped in the cages — one proposed facility off the coast of Florida in the Gulf of Mexico even hopes to someday cram up to 2 million fish into its pens. Fish feed and waste — as well as antibiotics and other chemicals used in the facilities — leak into the surrounding waters, contributing to toxic algal blooms and red tides. Adding to that, the net pens often allow larger farmed fish to escape into the wild, and disrupt and change ecosystems by outcompeting wild fish for food, habitat or mates, and spreading diseases and parasites to the wild fish we catch and bring to our tables.

As two people who have worked in the fishing industry our whole lives, we are painfully aware that the rapid advancement of industrial aquaculture facilities jeopardizes our jobs, livelihoods, and communities. Industrial aquaculture development not only threatens us as individual fishermen, it also puts our communities at risk. In coastal regions such as ours, fishing is the basis of the economy: Our catch is used to feed families, supply our restaurants and fill local markets. Fishing also supports other local industries —boat repair, equipment purchasing, ice, fuel and more — as the money we make is spent in our community. If aquaculture fish take over our markets and pollute our waters, fishing and coastal communities will feel the losses. In both of our states, federal agencies are permitting risky new facilities to move forward, despite overwhelming local opposition. The Velella Epsilon and Pacific Ocean AquaFarms facilities are only a few steps away from final approval. Once approved, they will be used to justify further development. Neil Sims, CEO of Ocean Era, spells corporate aquaculture intentions out, loud and clear: “By blazing this trail through the permitting process, we want to build an industry. We don’t want to just be one farm out there.” These corporations stand to gain
millions of dollars from industrial development, but that profit won’t be invested in our communities. Instead, industrial facilities may force local commercial fishermen out of business. Fishing and coastal communities need to speak up, and make sure we’re heard at all levels of government, from Congress to the White House. We recently joined a policy discussion about how our fisheries are affected by climate change, and our insight was critical. Independent commercial fishermen especially can understand the importance of preserving a healthy ocean environment and supporting a local, blue economy. With our livelihoods on the line, we must have a seat at the table and urge the federal government to stop rushing the development of risky and unnecessary aquaculture facilities, and instead focus on policies that support the small business owners and fishermen who got us through the pandemic. For starters, Congress can support the Keep Finfish Free Act, and President Biden can take swift and meaningful action to reverse the outcomes of the damaging 2020 executive order. After a devastating year full of uncertainty, fishermen need support and consistency from the federal government — not a haphazard approach to developing another industry that would hurt small business owners. We need our government to pay attention to all we have lost and all the challenges we are still facing. We need investment in local fishing communities and solutions to help grapple with the effects of climate change. We hope Congress and the Biden administration will start down this path by supporting the Keep Finfish Free Act, and mobilizing other support urgently needed by our coastal communities.

Northern Lights VIEWS FROM ALASKA
Show your work By Matt Alward & Dan Aherne
fter 20-plus years of working to improve environmental seafood sustainability, seafood retailers, processors and foodservice providers have expanded the vision of sustainable seafood to embrace social elements. Alaska is a global leader in environmental sustainability, and now is the time to be transparent about responsible environmental and social practices. Alaska’s seafood industry operates more than 9,000 vessels. More than two-thirds of those are owned by Alaskans, many of which are multigenerational, small family businesses. New certification standards will be available soon for vessels to demonstrate social and labor best practices similar to the way Alaska RFM demonstrates sustainable harvesting. Matt Alward, a commercial fisherman and president of the United Fishermen of Alaska, and Dan Aherne, group chief executive for New England Seafood International, shared their thoughts on the importance of social responsibility to customers of Alaska seafood as well as fishermen.
A
6 National Fisherman \ August 2021
Q: Why is wild Alaska seafood important to you and your customers? DA: NESI has a core purpose of “enhancing lives through fish.” We want the products we source, process and sell to be a force for good, whether at the consumer end of the chain through health and nutritional benefits, or at the catching and processing stages of the chain where fishers and production operatives deserve a fair deal for their efforts in supplying that product. If we are to be true to our purpose, we must be confident that the people that make this industry what it is are being fairly and humanely treated in all areas of the supply chain. Q: What are some of the challenges NESI faces in trying to provide adequate information for your customers around these issues? DA: The initial reaction from a great number of our supply chains has been fairly defensive. That is often because they are confident in how they treat their people and think the questioning suggests a lack of trust. Furthermore, these are busy, timeconstrained operations, so the prospect of opening themselves up for more auditing is rarely welcome. Our suppliers also worry that norms and custom practices (Alaska’s tradition of children fishing with their parents, for example) could be threatened by overzealous bureaucracy. Our job is to spend time with our suppliers to explain and discuss the why. Bad actors like to operate where they have cover. When our partners consider this perspective, they are usually happy to share more of what they do.

Q: Do vessel standards like FISH Standard for Crew make it easier for you to get the information your customers are looking for? DA: Industrywide standards that create a common currency and allow benchmarking are always preferable to multiple standards that can be hard for the market to apply or interpret. However, these standards must be capable of considering the vastly different industrial fishing methods and some of the important cultural nuances and norms around the world. They should not compromise on the core foundational principles, but they must recognize context and be open to scrutiny and challenge in order to evolve over time. FISH is a new standard that is attracting a lot of interest and a high degree of scrutiny from the NGO community. It is important to face the scrutiny and challenge, as well as to be open to evolving the standard. Q: Why is this an issue the fleet should be responsive to? MA: As a fisherman, I don’t have a direct connection with the marketplace, thus I’m relying on my processor to develop strong markets to get the most value out of the fish that I catch. In the same way the push toward eco-labeling took time for the fleets to embrace, the global push to demonstrate fair labor practices and social responsibility in all supply chains, including seafood, will also take time. The markets control what they need to see in order to make purchases. As a part of the global seafood supply chain, fishermen must be responsive and on the forefront of showing the world what our labor practices are and why they more than meet the demand. Q: Is there a role for UFA to play in helping fishermen prepare for the growing demand for transparency from the market? MA: When UFA became aware that markets were starting to look at social responsibility and labor practices on fishing vessels we knew we would need to be out in front of it, leading efforts to show why we believe the Alaska fishing fleets set the standard on social responsibility. We partnered with the Alaska Fisheries Development Foundation in 2018, and received a NOAA SK grant to create “Social Responsibility Onboard Commercial Fishing Vessels in Alaska,” which can be found on the AFDF website. UFA will continue to keep the fleets informed as standards are developed and market demands grow. Q: Where can fishermen learn about this certification and other tools to engage in the conversation? MA: I understand this is still new for most. A great place to start is the FISH website. FISH board members and staff are great resources for anyone with questions or who wants to be involved. As a member of the Oversite Committee, I am always happy to talk. This conversation is not going away, and it’s important for us all to be a part of it.

Dan Aherne is the group chief executive for U.K.-based New England Seafood International, leading development of private label supply, foodservice and consumer brands.

Our House
Steady as she goes By Lori French
Nov. 2020 to present — The Old Man of the Sea gets domestic. I never thought I would see the day when the Old Man of the Sea didn’t get up before me. Now he sits in bed with his coffee and his tablet researching chicken things, truck things, fishing regulations and other random stuff. And (this is important): He makes the bed. Every. Morning. It’s creeping me out. His routine now is to get up, turn on some irrigation somewhere around the ranch, grab a cup of coffee and a snack, and crawl back in bed to read. I tell you I need my normal life back. Who is this man? After he gets out of bed for the day, he ventures into the kitchen. He cooks breakfast every single day. And what’s more is if I’m not having my grab and go, he’ll cook me something, too, and hand it to me when I’m on my way out of the door. Somehow he always makes it to the gate to open it for me. Every. Single. Morning. This is kinda spoiling me for when our life returns to normal. Dec. 2020 — The Anti-Christmas We agreed at Christmas that we weren’t going to do presents. Read: I wasn’t going to do the entire Christmas thing for him this year or anyone, for that matter. I was in a seriously bad mood. But I only changed my mind for the Old Man of the Sea. I figured this year had been really tough in so many ways, and he needed a little fun. So I bought him a drone. This was all fine and dandy until I realized he needed a smartphone to use the thing. Now keep in mind, The Old Man of the Sea has rocked his flip phone proudly and has belittled my smartphone. He has flat out refused to answer it when it rings and my hands are full. He acts like the thing will give him a full blown case of the cooties. Until he needed it. All of a sudden my phone started 8 National Fisherman \ August 2021
disappearing. He had absolutely no problem using it for his drone. We found ourselves in the interesting Phone Share phase of our marriage. One of my sisters was told to call back after the drone session. Thank God she laughed. The next thing I know all my hens are fleeing for their lives as he buzzed them with the drone. “Wow this is great! I can buzz my cows and check in on them without having to hike up the hill!” He started buzzing other relatives that live on the ranch. One day I came home to find my green rocking chair in the avocado orchard. “Um why?” “It’s my command post launch area.” Yes I created a monster. Dec. 31, 2020: I nearly kill myself I launched my kayak into a swift, screaming outgoing tide. I ended up dumping my kayak, myself and the contents of said kayak in the bay. Including my phone. The Old Man of the Sea was heartbroken. He couldn’t fly his drone. Jan. 5, 2021: Our world became smarter The Old Man of the Sea became the owner of a smartphone. What’s more: He’s pretty much mastered the dang thing, which makes me think this entire thing of not being able to answer my phone was a complete sham. See how that all worked out? I dumped my phone, and he got an upgrade. At times I am just absolutely brilliant. Jan. 2021: Amazon The Old Man of the Sea figured out the joys of Amazon. Previously he knew it existed and has given me plenty of grief over the packages arriving. “We don’t need that! Or what did you buy now?” And my all-time favorite: “What did you spend my hard earned money on this time?” (Vacuum cleaner bags since Sears closed. My skin care products. Stuff that isn’t available in our town.) In the Before
Times, if he wanted to order something, he would have me do it. Now he’s figured out that all he has to do is to hit the BUY NOW and a box magically appears at the gate a couple of days later. If the man could buy crab bait off of Amazon, he would. He’s looked it up. Our roles have completely reversed now. March 2021: He’s now known as Chicken Jeff He has completely taken over my chicken business. I feed the girls before I go to work. When I come home from work, I find all the changes he has made. On weekends, he’ll tell me what needs to be done. He likes to remind me that the one poultry class he took at Cal Poly, he got an A. What’s worse is he will quote that professor to me. I’m the one who has a degree in poultry. (BTW, I got an A in that class, too.) I’m still the marketing part of the business, though. He doesn’t like interacting with too many people, and I don’t think that will ever change. April 2021: The next thing I thought I would never see The Old Man of the Sea with long hair. He hasn’t had a haircut in over a year. He has very curly hair and a lot of it (except on the very top). (OK, that was a bit of payback.) Anyways, he has always kept his hair on the short and tidy side. As I write this in mid-2021, he has not had a haircut in over a year. His hair is scaring me. He has Shirley Temple curls. He talks about how when he washes his hair, it takes a special technique. He talks about my different shampoos and conditioners. He. Is. Talking. About. His. Hair. Which. Is. Way. Longer. Than. Mine. April 2021 — We might have made it through There is a pile of fish hooks on the table. There is a pile of boat bedding by the washing machine. He’s talking salmon season. He’s optimistic. I’ll know life is getting back to our normal when he gets his hair cut. Lori French is the wife of a Dungeness crabber and director of the Morro Bay-based Faces of California Fishing.

Nation/World Salmon overtakes lobster as top-value U.S. catch
OBI Seafoods
A great 2019 Alaska salmon season and marketing efforts catapulted it to the lead
The first king salmon landed in Alaska’s Copper River opener gets a first-class ticket to Seattle on Alaska Air to celebrate the official start of Alaska’s salmon fishing season.
MFS released two annual reports on May 20, with statistics on 2019’s landings and 2020 stock status. In the 2019 domestic fisheries economic report, called “Fisheries of the United States,” the top ports remained the same. Dutch Harbor/Unalaska holds the top port by volume (23 years running) with 763 million pounds. New Bedford, Mass., holds the top rank for value (20 years running) at $451 million. Alaska pollock has held Dutch Harbor in the top spot for landings. But wild salmon has the big story to tell for 2019, taking the lead for most valuable domestic species overall, which is especially notable because it is the only finfish in the top five. This year, the report’s top five 2019 landings by value were: Salmon at $707 million Lobster at $668 million Crabs at $636 million Scallops at $572 million Shrimp at $467 million Unlike Atlantic scallops, which are landed primarily in New Bedford, salmon (like Northeast lobster) are landed in
N

smaller ports across the region, so their high value is unlikely to push any single port into that top spot anytime soon. The other new “Status of Stocks” report for 2020 shows domestic Overfishing and Overfished lists each increased by 1 percent. In 2019, 22 domestic fisheries (7 percent) were listed as experiencing overfishing, and that rose to 26 fisheries (8 percent) in 2020. The 2020 number is still lower than in 2018, when
it was 28 fisheries (9 percent). It is worth noting that the percentage of Overfishing/Overfished stocks is a reflection of the sheer number of fisheries monitored by the federal government (323 and 251, respectively) and not as a percentage of our landings. In other words, a small fishery counts the same as a large fishery in this report. And as we must always note, overfished does not necessarily mean what it implies. “Despite historically low fishing level in recent years, Atlantic herring was added to the overfished list because, since 2013, reproduction has been steadily declining to record low levels,” the report summary says. That 20 percent number no doubt will be used against the fishing industry, despite the fact that it’s not exclusively a fishing-based designation. The federal agency is also working to improve its data collection and understanding of some fisheries, so new modeling methods or collaborative research may change a stock status in either direction. “American Samoa and Guam bottomfish stock assessments included new information that changed our understanding of current stock conditions and will now be used to craft responsive management measures,” the summary states. — Jessica Hathaway
Alaska Alaska Native group moves to block road to Pebble Conservation easements planned in 2022 would prevent access for development
he road to Pebble Mine is getting rougher. Pedro Bay Corp., a Native organization in Alaska’s Bristol Bay region, announced late last month that nearly 90 percent of its shareholders voted in favor of conservation easements for more than 44,000 of the corporation’s 92,100 acres of land in southwest Alaska. The agreement would make the land offlimits to development, including Pebble
T
Corp.’s proposed mining road. “This transaction supports the values of our community members by protecting their land, their subsistence, and their traditional way of life,” said Pedro Bay Corp. CEO Matt McDaniel in a statement. “This is an opportunity that will provide our community benefits and economic value in perpetuity. After years of consideration, the shareholders have now made an informed www.nationalfisherman.com
decision on how to manage and protect their privately held ancestral lands.” Just over a year ago, on May 22, 2020, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers revealed that its record of decision on the proposed Pebble Mine would be based on building a northerly route to the mine rather than a southerly route via ferry across Lake Iliamna, which had been the preferred plan throughout the public comment process. The new route was touted as a reduced environmental risk. But there was one significant hurdle — the road required access to Native land. Three days later, the Igiugig Village Council released a statement saying it would not cooperate with the Pebble Limited Partnership’s plan to use a northerly route via road and pipeline. The Igiugig Village Council controls the Diamond Point rock quarry, which would be required as the port for moving in mining materials and exporting the product. “PLP’s plan for Diamond Point presented in the [environmental impact statement] does not fit with our plans for Diamond Point, and should not be considered an acceptable alternative,” the council said in a statement last year.

project manager for the Army Corps, that the company “has not, and will not, consent to the Pebble Limited Partnership’s use of its lands for the Pebble project.” The Conservation Fund, an environmental nonprofit, is now raising funds to purchase the easements of the Pedro Bay Corp. land by the end of 2022. When the transaction is complete, Pedro Bay Corp. will retain ownership of the land, which will be subject to the terms of the conservation easements. Those will be held by the Bristol Bay Heritage Land Trust, which will administer and enforce terms of the conservation easements in perpetuity. The new agreement will expand

a partnership between the trust, Pedro Bay Corp. and the Conservation Fund that in 2016 established protections for more than 12,600 acres of the corporation’s 92,100 acres of surface land “allotted under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act,” according to the group’s website.

West Coast/Pacific Fishermen see wind turbines in conflict with whales

Severely restricted now, California industry worries about offshore power push
Dungeness crabs sampled for quality testing.
fter state officials ended California’s Dungeness crab season a month early to reduce danger of humpback whales entangling in gear, fishermen were asking how the state and federal governments’ push to open those waters for offshore wind power might increase risk to them and the whales.

Gov. Gavin Newsom proposed $20 million for the state budget that he says will expedite environmental review for renewable energy projects. “We value process but not the paralysis of a process that takes years and years that can be done in a much more focused way,” said Newsom. That approach alarmed fishing advocates. “The fishing industry has been told these areas work best for offshore wind developers; but no one has asked us what areas would work best for us,” said Mike Conroy, executive director of the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen’s Association.

Far too many questions remain unanswered regarding potential impacts to marine life which is dependent on a healthy ecosystem,” said Conroy. Even environmental groups, always solidly behind California’s renewable energy initiatives, appeared to take some pause from the speed that offshore wind is gathering there. “We must remain vigilant in our efforts to ensure offshore wind is a net positive for California by also implementing robust environmental protections,” said Kristen Hislop of the Environmental Defense Center, founded in Santa Barbara after a severe 1969 offshore oil spill there. The half-century since then has left California with probably the strictest environmental policies in the country — including a focus on marine mammal protection. Among fishermen’s other concerns is that offshore wind construction will displace migrating whales closer to shore, with the potential for still more confl ict, said Conroy. In a May 19 blog, Rebecca Loomis and Francine Kershaw of the Natural Resources Defense Council — a resolute supporter of offshore wind — spelled out a cautionary note. “Once potential floating offshore wind sites are identified, decisionmakers should conduct comprehensive ecological studies of To subscribe, call 1-800-959-5073

the potential construction of hundreds of turbines off the U.S. East Coast could change regional ocean environments and fisheries. “Getting a baseline (study) is a real challenge,” given the speed of recent developments, and the UMassVineyard Wind project is drawing on decades of fisheries survey work in Northeast waters, said Cadrin. Based on eight surveys since 2019, researchers have determined that protocols used in the Northeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (NEAMAP), an integrated, cooperative state and federal data collection program, will be sensitive enough to “detect a moderate change for most important commercial species” such as whiting, longfi n squid and summer flounder when the 800-megawatt Vineyard Wind project is constructed, said Cadrin. The NEAMAP methodology calls for pulling survey trawl nets for one tow every 30 square miles of ocean, to collect data on a fi ner scale than the 100-square-mile grid of annual NOAA surveys.

We’re talking to jig boats and red snapper longliners. Our other distributors are working with fishermen on the West Coast.

Oxe is upping its game in the United States with a new manufacturing plant and dealer training facility in Albany, Ga. “We’re just getting started,” says LeBlanc. “Right now we’re manufacturing the 125-, 150-, and 200-horsepower engines.

“You can drive in four to five different modes, diesel only, electric only, both, and cross over between the engines. You can also run all the hotel’s systems, so it’s very flexible.” — Juergen Haberland, MAN
MAN is building parallel diesel-electric hybrid engines from inline 6 cylinder up to its V12.
also have a request from a trawler in Canada.” The MAN hybrid system will be a parallel system primarily for dual engine installations. “You will be able to put additionally to each prop system 200 to 400 kW [286 to 536 hp],” says Haberland. “Then you can drive in four to five different
modes — diesel only, electric only, both, and cross over between the engines.You can also run all the hotel’s systems, so it’s very flexible.” According to Haberland, MAN is working with Volkswagen on technology aimed at increasing battery life, charging speed, and power density. Besides hybrid electric, MAN is also working with alternative fuels,
including compressed natural gas, liquefied natural gas and hydrogen. While LNG is not practical for small boats, Haberland believes CNG may have some potential, as well as hydrogen. “They have less power density, but they are cleaner,” he says. For boats that are running bigger diesels, MAN’s SCR system has been very successful.

“We have years of experience with aftertreatment technology,” says Haberland. “Ours is comparatively compact and lightweight, also it’s modular. We don’t offer one box, we have modules that anyone can put together in a given installation space.” The Finnish company Wärtsilä is on an aggressive path toward decarbonizing marine engines through electrification, engine optimization, and alternative fuels. The drawback of alternative fuels is that their volumetric energy density is lower than that of diesel fuel, and consequently they require bigger tanks. With space at a premium on fishing boats, engine optimization, often augmented by some version of electrification, might seem like the most attractive option. But the Norwegian company Sorheim Holding is building an LNG-powered trawler/seiner, the Selvåg Senior. The 260foot Skipsteknisk-designed boat will be powered by an
LNG-fueled, 6,437-hp Wärtsilä 8V31DF engine. With the LNG stored at minus 140 to minus 160 degrees C, designers integrated a cold recovery system for the RSW in the 2,480-cubic meter fish hold. Every engine company has its strategy and market, and Mitsubishi is betting its chips on the simplicity number. “There are two advantages to Mitsubishi,” says Doug Oehrlein, sales and marketing consultant at Mitsubishi Turbocharger and Engine America. “One is big displacement. We typically have 20 to 25 percent more displacement than our competitors. I think that translates into longevity. The second thing is mechanical advantage, especially if they’re fishing in remote waters where you can’t get a mechanic out there with a computer.” Oehrlein notes that on the displacement, a Mitsubishi will be 15 liters but have the same horsepower as the competition’s 13-liter engines.
A short season means there’s no room for failure. Fear not. Go ahead, push your boat to the limit. Our UltraJet is built with you in mind. Where reliability is paramount, efficiency at high thrust is expected, and performance with an oversized load is sublime. So push, pull, transfer or haul that payload with confidence and keep your focus on completing your mission. We make your business our business. Trust UltraJet to get it done.

The Scania DI13 87M has a heat exchanger for that extra power when you’re loaded.
Caterpillar bought EMD from Progress Rail almost a decade ago and marinized what had been primarily a train engine. The EMD E 23 engine is an option for large freezer trawlers — newbuilds or repowering. The two-cycle engine can be configured in 8 to 20 cylinders and deliver 2,000 to 5,000 bhp at 900 rpm. It meets Tier 4 fi nal
standards and has a natural gas option. At Cascade Marine in Seattle, Tim Sandeman has put engines in about half a dozen Bristol Bay boats for the 2021 season. “A couple of Scanias, 750-hp keel cooled. People like the power-toweight ratio,” he says of Scania’s 13-liter powerhouse. “We’re working on another 800-hp with a heat exchanger. People are looking for performance, they want to get up and plane with 4,000 or 5,000 pounds of fish. We can get that extra horsepower with the heat exchanger. The Scania DI13 87M is the one with the heat exchanger, the keel cooled is the DI13 088M.” Sales of Yanmar engines have slowed for Sandeman, but only because his market is satiated. “We sold a lot of Yanmar 350-hp, V-6s for the bowpickers up in Cordova and Copper River,” he says. “All those boats are

COVER STORY
It’s a Motor-Services Hugo Stamp launches a work of art for Bristol Bay ith trade shows shut down all over the world, diesel engine manufacturers need a new way to promote their products in a competitive industry. Justin Roeser of Motor-Services Hugo Stamp has come up with a novel way to sell FPT Industrial’s N67 570 EVO engine — a 6.7-liter, inline six that packs 530-hp into a tight footprint. “I was creative director on the project,” says Roeser. “We were sitting around kind of brainstorming — how do we reach out to people and make an impact? We also had a budget we had to spend. FPT Industrial put the question out there, and my idea was: Why don’t we wrap one of these Bristol Bay boats?” Roeser’s idea didn’t just materialize in a vacuum. He had heard of a Snohomish-based artist, Troy Dorn, who wrapped cars. Roeser proposed the idea to Dorn, FPT, and Tom Aliotti, builder of Bristol Bay gillnetters. “My idea was to wrap a Bristol Bay boat with a killer salmon wrap,” Roeser said. “The word ‘killer’ is inspired by the ’70s heavy metal band Alice Cooper and their album by that name.” Roeser’s idea was to take a sharptoothed mouth, the kind used on World War II fighter planes, and combine it with the rainbow quality of a salmon skin. “I hooked up with Troy’s company, it’s called Gorilla Mad. They did wraps on cars. I’d seen their work on Instagram. They were able to take the ideas in my head and produce the artwork on a heavy duty 3M vinyl wrap.” Working with Gorilla Mad, the team began tackling

the challenges of putting a durable wrap on a hard working boat. “We had to figure out how it was going to go on all the corners and rub rails and things like that,” says Roeser. “There is a film that goes over the wrap that lets it change colors with the light. It’s almost like a hologram. And all of the red — the mouth and the eyes — and the white teeth, all glow in the dark.” Roeser notes that the workers in Aliotti’s boatshop would come in early in the morning and feel the boat was staring at them. Before the wrap, came the boat itself. Roeser is selling engines, not wraps. Tom Aliotti’s fabrication company, NTG Fabrication, builds what Aliotti says is the best Bristol Bay gillnetter in the fishery (see NF August 2020, “A man on the inside”). With Bristol Bay boats limited to 32 feet in length, they have gotten wider and moved toward twinengine configurations, like the 530-hp FPT that gets the boats up on step and hitting speeds of 40 knots. “The hull is basically the same that we’ve been building,” says Aliotti. “Our boat is pretty much refined; we don’t have to do too much. We’ve hit the Holy Grail in terms of performance and comfort.”The performance comes from Aliotti’s hull design and the power train. The FPT Industrial N67s are fitted with ZF 305 reduction gears at 1.275:1, which drive the pair of Ultrajet 340HT jets. The jet’s stainless steel, mixed-flow and aluminum, axial-flow design has proven itself over many hours, and it is supported by manufacturer Marine Jet’s aftermarket service. With the two other boats he built alongside the Killer,

COVER STORY
Starting out with Tom Aliotti’s state-of-the-art Bristol Bay gillnetter.
Prepping the Garmin-outfitted wheelhouse was one of the trickier parts of the wrap job.
Troy Dorn and a helper were determined to make the wrap work on the first try.
Aliotti has somewhere around 20 of these FPT Industrial engines in service. But with every boat there are always tweaks. “We changed some details with the hydraulics and RSW and the way the fish hold is zoned,” says Aliotti. The boat has a 10-ton, hydraulic powered RSW (refrigerated seawater) system from Pacific West. Aliotti has zoned the hold to allow the skipper, Derrick Burns, to float different amounts of fish. “If they have 7 tons, they don’t have to fill the entire hold.” Aliotti is also very focused on problem-free hydraulics. “One of the things that sets our boats apart is the hydraulic system that Seattle Marine and Steve Brooks put together,” he says, noting the quality of the
material from Seattle Marine and caliber of Brooks’ work. “We run the system off both engines. One runs the RSW, and one runs the deck gear. But we can also combine them, and either one can run either system if we need to.” For deck gear, Aliotti builds his own drums. “We build them in-house, so that we can take care of the details of how the net goes in and out with our stern roller.” Aliotti got the stern roller and anchor winch from Kinematics Marine Equipment. “But we make a custom slide stern roller that has this ram rod system that allows us to use it like a level wind.” For electronics, Aliotti has installed mostly Garmin electronics. “We have two plotters, two fathometers, power steering,” he says. “We have a
camera system that is in the engine room, the deck, and the stern of the boat. We have two Icom VHFs.” The fo’c’sle accommodates three crew members and the captain. “It’s tight but comfortable,” says Aliotti. “The captain’s bed is almost queen size, there’s big, 4x7 bunks for the crew.” The galley has a three-burner stove with oven, and the crew can watch movies on a 33-inch TV. The shower is outside on the back deck. “It’s good for you,” Aliotti says. “But yes, it has hot water.” The boat took about five months to build, and it hit the water in early May 2021. The wrapping was the last big step. “We did it all in the shop,” says Aliotti. “I worked with Justin on that. It came out better than I expected.” “The wrapping went quick,” says Justin Roeser. “But the project took a long time. There were a lot of visits to Tom’s shop. They did a rendering, took photos of it, came back with the artwork. It was months of preparation, little pieces here and there, and then the install with Gorilla Mad.” Troy Dorn and another installer did the initial wrap in three long days. “In my line of work, 12-hour days are not unusual,” says Dorn, noting that the biggest challenge of the job was the planning and preparation. “I started talking to Justin back in December,” says Dorn. “The most important

Aliotti upped the game with a 10-ton RSW system from Pacific West, and a zoned hold.
A pair of 530-hp FPT N67s are works of functional art that will get the Killer onto fish.
Aliotti builds all his deck equipment inhouse, so he can mind the details.
Getting up on step with the twin FPTs and Ultrajet 340HT jets, the Killer will be easy to spot amid the densely packed gillnetters in Alaska’s Bristol Bay.
Using art to sell engines, Killer and FPT Industrial aim to make a splash.
thing is that they were able to provide us with the CAD files. A lot of the boat is flat, but it’s important to know the shape. The cabin part, for example, on the corners — those pieces are totally rounded, so getting the artwork so that you know it’s going to match up and flow, you need to know that shape.” Dorn worked on several iterations of the artwork, until Roeser and the rest of the team agreed on a final design. He ordered four 75- by 5-foot rolls of 3M vinyl. “The standard film you would use is white, but because of the scale pattern we were doing, I ordered a specialty film that is very expensive and very hard to get right now because of covid,” Dorn said. “The base color is called light aluminum.
roll. And it was a good thing they had a lift there. Sometimes we were 25 feet up, sometimes we were upside down. But it all worked.” Dorn credits the good results to his meticulous planning. The good news is that Roeser wants to wrap two more Aliotti boats, and Dorn will have much of the prep work already done. “We plan on doing more,” says Roeser. “FPT Industrial can be known for doing art boats. It’s a fun way to use a piece of machinery to make a visual impact and create a character people can talk about.”

It’s actually a silver metallic. And once we print on that, it gives the fish scales a very realistic look.” Once the material is printed, Dorn coats in with a laminate that protects against damage and UV radiation. “Then we had to cut it and plan the install,” says Dorn. “There’s a lot of brain work that goes into making sure it all flows.” Once Tom Aliotti had the boat finished, Dorn and his helper came in. “It was a lot of work,” he says. “Prepping the boat and fitting around all the corners and on the sides, making sure all the FPT Industrial and Motor-Services Hugo Stamp logos lined up. Around the nose we had to stretch the film because it was higher than the 60-inch width of the

A classic 35-foot Maine lobster boat design is back; new wooden lobster boat to be launched in fall
R&R Duffy Boats
By Michael Crowley
t was boredom,” says Richard Duffy, that brought him back to boatbuilding. He had been half of the Duffy & Duffy boatbuilding team (the other half was his father, Ralph) in Brooklin, Maine, from 1975 to 1995, when he sold Duffy & Duffy to Atlantic Boat Co. in Brooklin, after building about 578 boats. Then about three years ago, the boredom took hold. It wasn’t long before he asked Spencer Lincoln, who had designed many of the Duffy & Duffy boats: “Spencer, you got one more boat in mind?”
all the while thinking, “He hasn’t drawn a boat in 20 years.” Yet, Spencer replied, “Yeah, I got one more in mind.”Thus was born R&R Duffy Boats. In the days of Duffy & Duffy, the most well-known — and best selling — Duffy & Duffy model was the Spencer Lincolndesigned Duffy 35 (35' x 12'). It got the attention of local lobstermen when in 1981 Duffy took a 35 to the Stonington Lobster Boat Races and won its class.

The Millie, a Duffy 35 designed by Spencer Lincoln, is the first boat for Richard Duffy’s recently launched R&R Duffy Boats.

“After that race, we couldn’t build them fast enough,” he remembers. So it’s not surprising the first boat in the R&R Duffy Boats lineup is a Spencer Lincoln, much upgraded, Duffy 35. “It’s a lot different,” says Duffy of the new R&R Duffy Boats 35. For one, it’s bigger at 35' x 14'. That’s an additional two feet of beam, and it’s wider across the stern at 12 feet 6 inches. The 35 also “runs a lot straighter and doesn’t stand up as much.” Plus, there’s a 22-foot cockpit. The first R&R Duffy Boats 35, with a 450-hp Cummins QSL9, was launched in March. It’s the Millie (named after Duffy’s mother) and is Richard Duffy’s new lobster boat.The Millie was laid up at Duffy’s shop in Brooklin and finished off by Shawn Snow — who previously worked for Duffy & Duffy — at Snow’s SS Boats in nearby Sedgwick. “Shawn is going to be laying them up and building them,” says Duffy, who admits that “after getting down on my hands and knees and putting the shaft and engine in (the Millie), I don’t think I can do it anymore.” That doesn’t mean he won’t be helping Snow now and then, but basically Duffy and the Millie will be lobstering. Duffy isn’t sure when the second R&R Duffy Boats 35 will be ready, though the lay-up process began May 17. After John’s Bay Boat Co. launched the 45' x 15' 10" wooden lobster boat Lori Jane for Ed Munsey of Cundys Harbor, Maine, on Aug. 17, 2019, Peter Kass and his crew set about building the next boat, the Never Better, a 42-foot pleasure boat. Kass wasn’t optimistic about building another lobster boat in the near future. In fact, he didn’t see anybody wanting a new wooden lobster boat. “Right now I don’t see anybody buying lobster boats,” he said, putting the blame on bait problems, whale issues and low lobster landings. But then the Never Better launched on Oct. 31, 2020, and work began on the next boat, a 46' x 15' 10" lobster boat going to Friendship, Maine. It’s due to be launched in the fall and should be followed by two more lobster boats. Continued on page 37 www.nationalfisherman.com

Ala. yard converts oil supply ship for Va. oysterman; ample work lined up for wooden boat pros in the bay By Larry Chowning
ayou Shipbuilding & Service in Mobile, Ala., is converting a 96' x 24' oil supply vessel into an oyster planter for W.E. Kellum Seafood in Weems,Va. The vessel will be used to haul and plant seed oysters and shells on the firm’s private oyster grounds. It will also be used to plant on public grounds for Virginia’s Oyster Replenishment Program. “We purchased the boat down on the gulf and decided to find someone down there to convert it,” says Tommy Kellum of W.E. Kellum Seafood. “It is a lot easier to get washdown pumps and cannons (used to blow the seed and shell on oyster grounds) installed down on the gulf than it is in Virginia,” says Kellum. As Virginia’s oysters have flourished lately, business relationships between the commonwealth’s oyster growers and Gulf of Mexico oystermen and seafood dealers has nurtured friendly business relations. On good advice, the Kellums bought the OSV and are having Bayou Shipbuilding do the conversion. The boatyard came highly recommended by Stan Wright, owner of Wright Brand Oysters-Seafood, and Dominick

The Kellums met Wright through their oyster businesses and became acquainted with Ficarino through their retail seafood store, Kellum Farms Produce & Seafood Market in Irvington,Va. “We sell a lot of seafood that we buy from Dominick for our store,” says Kellum. “He is a super guy with a first-class product. Stan and Dominick highly recommended that we take the boat to Bayou Shipbuilding, and they have been in

the business in that area for a long time.” The boat is expected to arrive in Virginia in late June after a seven- to eightday run up the Atlantic coast from the gulf. Although it will be the first OSV hull conversion for Virginia’s oyster fishery, the state’s menhaden fishery has regularly used them for conversion to menhaden steamers and carry-away boats. Jennings Boatyard in Reedville,Va., keeps turning out garveys. The firm has a 27' x 10' garvey just about completed that will be going to commercial fisherman Bill Harris of Hartfield,Va. The boat will have a pilothouse aft, leaving enough space forward for a gillnet reel. It will be powered by a 300-hp Suzuki outboard. The motor will be mounted on a Stainless Marine outboard bracket. In May, the firm had a 27' x 10' garvey hull sitting on the yard to be used for a research/education vessel for Stockton University in New Jersey. It will be used for teaching and conducting research activities in the school’s marine science program. The contract on the boat is still under negotiation awaiting Coast Guard passenger certification. “I really do not think that’s going to be a problem,” says Larry Jennings, owner of the yard. Mentioned in the November 2020 column, Jennings has since completed and delivered a fiberglass pilothouse to Wayne Goddard of Valley Lee, Md., and his son-in-law Brian Hite of Ridge, Md. The pilothouse was installed on the 65foot wooden buyboat Poppa Francis. The deck boat built in 1989 was one of the last wooden deck boats built on Chesapeake Bay. It was built by Wayne’s father Francis Goddard. Moving to Deltaville,Va., David Reid of New Point, Va., was at Deltaville Boatyard in May replacing four bottom planks on Carlton Haywood’s Sharon H., a 38' x 10' deadrise built by Virgil Miller of Deltaville in 1972. Reid and his bother Danny are part of the bay’s wooden workboat culture that helps keep the bay’s workboats alive. They do not have a boatyard, but for 40 years have gone to where the boats are hauled to do the necessary Continued on page 37 August 2021 \ National Fisherman 35

Maritime Fabrications in La Conner, Wash., has been winding down the building of new boats for the past year, while focusing on retrofitting and repair work, as well as designing and building deck machinery. That doesn’t mean boatbuilding work hasn’t taken place. A 48' x 16' fiberglass hull waiting to be finished off as an offshore crabber that will fish out of Westport, Wash., and also serve as a tender for Dungeness crab boats in Puget Sound. The Canadian company Millennium Marine in Miramichi, New Brunswick, built the 48-foot hull. It was then shipped to a West Coast owner, before changing hands and ending up in Maritime Fabrications’ boatyard as an unfinished hull. “The bulk of the fiberglass work is done,” says Maritime Fabrications’ Isaac Oczkewicz. “We are doing what’s needed to finish it up and then the outfitting.” That includes installing an 800-hp Volvo D13. He expects the work to be completed in November. This winter, several Bristol Bay gillnetters were in for repairs. One gillnetter was a two-year project that included removing an older Detroit Diesel and replacing it with a 450-hp 8.3

Cummins. In addition, an Integrated Marine Systems 10-ton RSW dieseldriven split system was installed and a new flush deck built. “There was no shortage of work,” says Oczkewicz, “especially when they come down from Alaska.” Already discussions
are taking place regarding working on Bristol Bay gillnetters next fall and winter. In addition, Maritime Fabrications also repairs recreational boats. For more than three decades, Maritime Fabrications has been building deck machinery for fishing boats, and that work will continue. Recently the crew there came up with a heavy-duty level-wind pivot. It’s called the Bowser Pivot and is named after the late Geof Bowser, who helped design it. Bowser was a Bristol Bay gillnetter who died this winter while working on his boat, the Dr. Jack. The main benefit of the Bowser Pivot “is it turns level-wind movement into a one-person (operation) instead of two people,” said Oczkewicz. One person can unpin the level-wind and pivot it in an arc so it’s out of the way and then set the net. “It saves some effort, and some captains consider it safer.” In Alaska, John Schumacher at Distinctive Finishes is upgrading the Krista C, a 34-foot Ohima gillnetter out of Haines, Alaska. The work includes repowering and increasing fishhold capacity. “They got a really good used (330-hp) Cummins,” says Schumacher. It’s replacing “an old Volvo.” The
Distinctive Finishes increased the fish hold capacity on the gillnetter the Krista C and repowered the 34-footer out of Haines, Alaska. www.nationalfisherman.com

Cummins came out of a Nordic Tug. “It was really clean and had 5,000 hours,” whereas the Volvo was burdened with something like 30,000 hours. The repowering took place in April, and in May Schumacher raised the three fish holds up about 10 inches to the cap rail. He feels that should increase the hold capacity by about 2,000 pounds. If there’s enough time, he may install rolling chocks. In a couple of years, Schumacher expects the Krista C to return — depending how the fishing goes — for a flush deck and a sliding drum. When the Krista C leaves, a 36-foot Mel Martin halibut longliner is due in to be painted, and after that it will be another repowering job. This time it’s the Chilkat (named after a river in Southeast Alaska), a 32-foot Snowball that’s getting a new Cummins and a shaft tube. Schumacher isn’t sure about the horsepower but suspects it will “probably be 330 to 340 horsepower.That tends to be whatever one is going to.” The Chilkat’s bow will also receive some attention where she hit a rock. The Chilkat gillnets, longlines, crabs and shrimps. “He does a lot with that boat,” says Schumacher.
work to keep each boat going. Traditional watermen in the area know them well. When asked if they wanted their address published in NF to advertise their work, David made it clear:“We have more work than we can do!” The unfortunate message for bay watermen from that was that traditional and affordable boatwrights, like the Reids, are now few and far between. While up on the hard, the Sharon H. was shadowed by the large wooden hulls, side-by-side of the 61.7' x 20.4' x 6.5' Nellie Crockett and 55.8' x 15.7' x 4.6' F.D. Crockett.The boat crew of the Deltaville Maritime Museum were painting the bottom and sides of the log hull of the F.D. Crockett, while Ted and Mimi Parish and family of Georgetown, Md., were getting the Nellie ready for the upcoming annual Chesapeake Bay Buyboat Rendezvous in August.The owners normally do their annual maintenance at a yard closer to home but foreclosure of that yard brought them to Deltaville Boatyard, a yard capable of hauling a wooden hull the size of the Nellie Crockett. Both the Nellie Crockett (1925) and F.D. Crockett (1924) are listed in the National Historic Landmarks Program.
The 46-footer now being built is the 75th boat designed and built by Kass, with somewhat over 50 being lobster boats. For each boat, he usually makes a half model as part of the design process, but this boat’s owner went for a ride with Munsey on the Lori Jane and “thought it was a good boat for him,” says Kass, so the Lori Jane’s half model and molds worked just fine for the new boat. She will have cedar hull planking and oak framing — “the normal formula,” Kass says. Up forward it will be “more than most lobster boats and not as much as some of our boats.”That should amount to four upper and lower bunks, an aluminum workbench on the starboard side, and a counter on the port side, which is a good spot for a microwave. Instead of seamed and caulked Douglas fir decks over white oak deck beams, there will be a plywood and fiberglass deck with rubber tiles, because the traps will be set out of an open stern, and fir decks don’t hold up that well. A 2,500-pound lobster tank is going beneath the deck. In the engine room is an 800-hp Cat C18. Kass is “hopeful that she’ll make 21 knots wide open and 17 knots cruising.” He’ll find out come fall.

PRODUCT ROUNDUP
Big data for little boats Intellian leverages high-throughput for boats under 80 feet By Brian Hagenbuch
his spring Intellian rolled out the new v45C, a compact VSAT antenna that provides high-speed connectivity for commercial fishing vessels under 80 feet. The antenna’s dish has a diameter of 45 centimeters, making it Intellian’s smallest unit yet. Viable in tight spaces on seiners, gillnetters, and trollers, the v45C provides small vessels with powerful connectivity once reserved for the big guys. Paul Comyns, Intellian’s vice president of global sales, said these little, powerful antennas are made possible by sweeping technological advances. “It’s an interesting time because the technology is advancing for both the satellites and the antennas. That means we’re able to create a smaller antenna that has the ability to create high-speed,
T
broadband connectivity,” Comyns said. The speed is facilitated by high-throughput satellite technology, which leverages multiple network operators to provide a focused spot beam for high power in a small area. The antenna works where there is satellite coverage, which Comyns said covers most fishing grounds and coastal areas. “It opens up a huge market potential with smaller fishing vessels. Before, they might have had internet onboard, but it was slow, pay-per-megabyte, expensive,” Comyns said. Comyns added that one advantage of the Intellian system is that it works with anyone’s airtime. Like an unlocked cellphone, this increases the versatility of the antenna. Plus, the v45C functions under a pay-what-you-use model, great for

smaller boats with low overhead. “For a smaller vessel that needs just a little bit of email connectivity, or needs to talk to their wife and kids occasionally, or needs to report their catch, they can just pay for a small amount of data,” Comyns said. But then, of course, the high-speed internet is at hand as well, something that Comyns added is increasingly becoming an expectation at sea, no matter the size of the vessel.

Waterjet control Kongsberg Maritime launches two new jet control systems By Brian Hagenbuch
orway’s Kongsberg Maritime has rolled out two water jet control systems, the JCS Compact and JCS Extended. Based on the new JCS (jet control system) technology program, the two systems use standard components for lower costs and simpler operations. The JCS Compact is for small- to medium-sized boats, with a custom control system to manage steering as well as reversing bucket and other options. The system works in tandem with the waterjets to provide smoother, more accurate control of the vessel. According to Kongsberg, the Compact “can be used with either one or two control stations and a single waterjet propulsion unit or, for full redundancy

and operational safety in the event of unforeseen issues, a dual-waterjet configuration.” The Compact and the waterjet unit and hydraulic components are tested and calibrated before being sent to the buyer. The simple, small unit also features plugin assembly and easy instructions for installation and startup. A 2.8-inch display screen shows steering angle and reversing bucket, with a high-contrast display that is visible even in glaring sunlight. The JCS Extended is similar to the compact but on a larger scale. With a capacity of three control stations and four waterjet propulsion units, the system can increase the maneuverability of larger workboats by providing more precision in the waterjet hydraulic valves.
Control systems for smoother, more precise maneuvering.
The Extended can also be hooked up to an optional GNSS antenna, with a number of other possible applications, like Auto Positioning, Anchor Point, Auto Heading and Trim Assist, as well as Park Mode. According to Kongsberg, Park Mode “enables hydraulic cylinder rods to be withdrawn to prevent fouling when vessels are docked in areas with a high concentration of bio-organisms.” Control stations for the Extended have 7-inch display screens, with ergonomically updated design touches.

A collaboration between GANNET NETS and Japan’s ASANO, this STAINLESS STEEL NEEDLE is the tool you did not know you needed. The needle is designed specifically for effectively seizing new twines that are thinner and stronger, in particular UHMWPE twine. The softness of traditional plastic needles means they flex under the increased pressure of stronger line or are lacerated by the twine. This needle stands up to the force and ensures tight seizings.
