  • From Cray Rings to Closure : Aspects of the Tasmanian Fishing Industry To
    / FROM CRAY RINGS TO CLOSURE ASPECTS OF THE TASMANIAN FISHING INDUSTRY TO CIRCA 1970 BY PETER L. STOREY B.A. ,, •' ..'-· ' Submitted as part of the fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Humanities, University of Tasmania, December 1993. •"'' \ This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other higher degree or graduate diploma in any university and, to the best of my .knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in text of the thesis. tTK ABSTRACT The history of the Tasmanian fishing industry is traced in general terms from settlement to 1925, and in greater detail to circa 1970. The development of the industry is reviewed emphasising changes in structure, the roles of management boards and the effects of government policy. A number of public enquiries and ·their recommendations are analysed to gain an insight into the industry at various times. The roles of regional centres and their increasing participation are investigated as are the development of the west coast fisheries. Events such as the great depression, the second world war, and the emergence and decline of export markets are examined in the light of their effects on the industry in general, and fishermen in particular. The organisation of fishermen into professional associations and commercial co-operatives, their expansion, and in some cases demise, is also explored. The attitudes of fishermen to resource management, conservation, and the effects of pollution are reviewed, as are their responses to fisheries and marine regulations Particular attention is paid to the concept of fishing effort and this is examined in the light of changing fishing technology, increasing capitalisation and the availability and dependence on.-bank finance.

  • Comparing Three Ecosystem Models of the Tasman and Golden Bays, New Zealand
    From data compilation to model validation: comparing three ecosystem models of the Tasman and Golden Bays, New Zealand Vidette L. McGregor1, Peter Horn2, Adele Dutilloy1, Samik Datta1, Alice Rogers3, Javier Porobic4, Alistair Dunn5 and Ian Tuck1 1 Fisheries, National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research Ltd., Wellington, New Zealand 2 Pachyornis Science, Wellington, New Zealand 3 School of Biological Sciences, Victoria University of Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand 4 Oceans & Atmosphere, CSIRO, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 5 Ocean Environmental, Wellington, New Zealand ABSTRACT The Tasman and Golden Bays (TBGB) are a semi-enclosed embayment system in New Zealand that supports numerous commercial and recreational activities. We present three ecosystem models of the TBGB ecosystem with varying levels of complexity, aimed at contributing as tools to aid in understanding this ecosystem and its responses to anthropogenic and natural pressures. We describe the process of data compilation through to model validation and analyse the importance of knowledge gaps with respect to model dynamics and results. We compare responses in all three models to historical fishing, and analyse similarities and differences in the dynamics of the three models. We assessed the most complex of the models against initialisation uncertainty and sensitivity to oceanographic variability and found it most sensitive to the latter. We recommend that scenarios relating to ecosystem dynamics of the TBGB ecosystem include sensitivities, especially oceanographic uncertainty, and compare responses across all three models where it is possible to do so.

  • Double-Ender Boats
    City of Port Phillip Living Heritage Project Edited transcript – Leonard “Dugga” Beazley Interviewees: Leonard “Dugga” Beazley [DB] and Frances Beazley [FB] Interviewer: Cathy Dodson [CD] 22 November 2016 Double-ender boats 0.29.55 (part one) CD: …Explain to me, as someone who doesn’t know really very much about boats at all, what the differences are between double-enders and the couta boats. What are the differences are in the shapes and why do you prefer one over the other? DB: Well a couta boat, it’s got what you call a transom. It’s square at the back, you know? And its stern is shaped like a wine glass. They call it a wine glass stern, but a double-ender is virtually the same shape on the bow as what it is at the stern. A double-ender boat is built for net fishing. When you had a double-ender with a pointy stern on it, when you were shooting nets, putting nets out on the water, they wouldn’t catch on the stern of the boat. And when you’re pulling them, we used to pull them back in backwards, and the boat would come nice and straight. And then you’d pull the nets over the stern. But with a couta boat, a couta boat was built to fish in Bass Strait. That’s why it had a deeper draft, to keep the propeller in the water all the time. Because a double-ender out in the big swell – You go out through the heads, and the waves go from being, you know, a little chop … … Into a big roll.

Ross McRae’s plank on frame model of the 1889 Port Phillip Bay paddle tug ‘Rescue’. Photo by Tony Weaver. EDITORIAL. This is the final ‘Bilge Water’ that I will assemble in its current form, that is to say, 16 or 20 stapled A4 pages. More than five years ago I willingly undertook the editorship of the unglamorously titled ‘Bilge Water’ in the belief that the newsletter is an essential communication component in any organization and a quasi historical record as well. In my case it has been the happy conjunction of a reprographic exercise that is part of my profession as a cartographer with a background in electronic computing; my enthusiasm as an amateur but clumsy photographer; my pedagogic approach to the English language in accordance with the OED and my obsession for model engineering in general and model boats in particular. Now, after twenty or so issues, which I am pleased to say have been distributed on their scheduled dates as a self imposed discipline, the newsletter is becoming stereotyped and is in need of new ideas by others. Hogarth is getting too big for his boots and on a couple of occasions has come perilously close to lift off.
