It all started in 1953 with the Fishing Boat Congress having sessions in Paris and Miami, the proceedings of which were published in " Fishing Boats of the World." A Processing Meeting followed in Rotterdam, Netherlands, in 1956, and a ,ear Congress was organized in Hamburg, Germany, in 1957. A second Fishing Boat Congress was held in Rome in 1959, the proceedings of which were again published in " Fishing Boats of the World :2." Those two fishing boat congresses were, in a way, rather comprehensive, trying to cover the whole field of fishing boat design and also attracting participants from dzfferent backgrounds. This was not a disadvantage, because people having dzfferent experiences were mutually influencing each other and were induced to see further away than their own limited world.
