(t) A Single Side Band (SSB) HF Marine Transceiver. 5 Distress Flares and Pyrotechnics are a vital part of the safety equipment of every fishing vessel Flares comes in three types – 1. Arial or Parachute flares, which ignite after a rocket has carried them skyward; 2. Handheld flares, which create an intense bright red flame; 3. Smoke flares, which have a plume of orange smoke that is highly visible from a searching aircraft. Any flare is only useful if it can be seen by someone who can give help or alert others. Because each flare burns only for a short time, you should try to maximise the chances of your flare being seen. There are some simple things you can do to ensure your distress signal is as effective as possible. There are three main types of flares, with different options available for each type: Orange smoke – effective as a line of sight distress signal for daytime use only. Red handheld – effective as line of sight distress signal by day and night, and very bright, with a good visibility range. These are very visible from an aircraft, and burn for up to 60 seconds. Red parachute or rocket – capable of attracting attention in daylight for up to 10 miles, with a night-time range of up to 40 miles. The rocket launches the flare up to 300m and the flare burns for 40–60 seconds as it slowly descends under the parachute. 6 ENSURE YOU'RE FLARE READY . Read and understand the firing instruction(s) for your flares before you need to use them, as you will not be able to read the instructions in a distress situation at night, when emergencies often occur. Store your flares in a waterproof container, or in a dry designated area below deck – and make sure passengers and crew know where they are and how to use them. Check the expiry date of your flares regularly, and replace flares before they expire. Dispose of your date-expired flares appropriately (see disposal of old flares). You should only fire flares when a boat or aircraft is seen, and you should wait until they are at the closest point to your location before firing them. Do not use all your flares at the sighting of an aircraft or boat, they may not see your flares, and you will have to use flares again at sighting of another aircraft or boat. Always hold the flare to leeward outside your boat when firing. Flares burn with extreme heat, and can easily damage your boat if used incorrectly. Fire parachute flares downwind – never into the wind – preferably at a 15–20 degree angle off vertical. LASER RESCUE FLARES - NON-PYROTECHNIC These up-to-the-minute devices offer a simple and effective way of pinpointing your position to a rescue ship or airplane searching for you. The laser "torch" emits a fan-shaped beam which is pointed at the target and moved slowly back and forth across it. The rescue crew will see a flashing red light which they will be able to home in on. Rescue Laser flares and lights have a number of advantages over pyrotechnic flares for guiding rescuers to the casualty: 1. Longer in-use life. A typical white pyrotechnic flare, a one-off device, lasts for less than a minute whereas the Rescue Laser Flares and Lights last for hours. Whilst this depends on the weather and the 7 amount of ambient light, in clear conditions and no ambient light the laser devices can be seen out to 20 miles (30 miles in the case of the Rescue Laser Flare Green) by night. By day they are visible out to 3 miles. 2. Location. Rescue Laser flares and lights can be used to illuminate reflective materials such as those on oilskins and life buoys out to a range of 1 mile. 3. Ease of use. Having a simple twist method of switching on and off, laser flares and lights are easy to use. 4. Safety Rescue Laser flares and lights are battery powered and are not a fire hazard. They are much safer to use than a pyrotechnic flare and they can be carried by air. 5. No Hazardous materials to be disposed of after they expire. Sound Signals Bells, whistles, and horns are some devices used to create distress sound signals. Other Visual Signals Flags are still used to inform others that you are in trouble. There are code flags which are widely-recognized as signals that indicate distress. A distress flag is orange in color with black square and black ball. LIFE JACKETS All fishing vessels MUST have onboard, one life jacket for each person. Life jackets must be stored in an easy accessible area. No matter how you slice it, almost any boating accident imaginable has a predictable outcome – you in the water fighting for your life. Unless you are wearing a life jacket, your survival chances are marginal. The best case scenario would be falling overboard without sustaining an injury, and being quickly recovered by a person remaining in the boat, or by 8 a nearby boater. In almost every other scenario, surviving a boating accident that resulted in being ejected from the boat without a life jacket would depend upon a quick rescue. Nine of ten drowning victims may have survived a capsizing or fall overboard if they had been wearing a life jacket. By wearing a life jacket you increase the chances of surviving. Think of it another way: without a lifejacket, how long can you tread water while waiting for rescue? What if you were injured? The major reason why most fishermen forego wearing life jackets while fishing is a comfort issue, hence the reason why artisanal fishermen just keep their life jackets stored away onboard. APPROPRIATE LIFE JACKET / PDF FOR OFFSHORE FISHING VESSELS Fire Prevention and Fire Safety Fire is very dangerous for vessels at sea. Fishing vessels use and carry lots of things that can cause fires. Once a fire starts on board a fishing vessel at sea it can be very hard to put out. You need to do everything you can to keep your vessel afloat and seaworthy. Every vessel should have regular fire drills. Practicing what you have to do is the best way to remember it. 9 Important points for all crew . Know and look out for fire risks. Know what fire equipment is held on board. Know how and when to use all the fighting equipment. Know how to contain a fire on board. Flammable hazard: A flammable hazard is something that could ignite a fire, or something that burns easy Flammable hazards - Every vessel at sea has a large number of Flammable Hazards on board. These include: Things that can ignite or start the fire . heat and sparks from electrical switches, motors, tools and leads . cooker flames . cigarettes and matches or lighters Things that can give the fire fuel to burn . diesel fuel . gas . cleaning chemicals . rags with oil or chemicals on them . hydraulic oil General Fire Prevention There are two main things you can do on board a vessel to prevent fires Keep the vessel tidy - good housekeeping is important Everyone on board must think ahead and try to identify fire risks during normal day to day operation of the vessel. 10 Here are some specific flammable hazards to look out for. On every vessel there will be other fire risks that are not on this list. Think carefully about your vessel and any other things you can do to prevent fires. Ensure no one smokes on board the vessel when taking on fuel.

  • 'British Small Craft': the Cultural Geographies of Mid-Twentieth
    ‘British Small Craft’: the cultural geographies of mid-twentieth century technology and display James Lyon Fenner BA MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2014 Abstract The British Small Craft display, installed in 1963 as part of the Science Museum’s new Sailing Ships Gallery, comprised of a sequence of twenty showcases containing models of British boats—including fishing boats such as luggers, coracles, and cobles— arranged primarily by geographical region. The brainchild of the Keeper William Thomas O’Dea, the nautical themed gallery was complete with an ocean liner deck and bridge mezzanine central display area. It contained marine engines and navigational equipment in addition to the numerous varieties of international historical ship and boat models. Many of the British Small Craft displays included accessory models and landscape settings, with human figures and painted backdrops. The majority of the models were acquired by the museum during the interwar period, with staff actively pursuing model makers and local experts on information, plans and the miniature recreation of numerous regional boat types. Under the curatorship supervision of Geoffrey Swinford Laird Clowes this culminated in the temporary ‘British Fishing Boats’ Exhibition in the summer of 1936. However the earliest models dated back even further with several originating from the Victorian South Kensington Museum collections, appearing in the International Fisheries Exhibition of 1883. 1 With the closure and removal of the Shipping Gallery in late 2012, the aim of this project is to produce a reflective historical and cultural geographical account of these British Small Craft displays held within the Science Museum.

Since then, the site has continued to deteriorat,e through nonnal wave action, storm activity, and the hands of collectors. The boat's pump tube was removed by a collector during a period when the site was exposed in the winter of 1988-1989. Initial observations led to the conclusion that the wreck is that of a seven meter long (approximately 23 feet) ftshing boat with a "live well.

  • In Search of the Amazon: Brazil, the United States, and the Nature of A
    IN SEARCH OF THE AMAZON AMERICAN ENCOUNTERS/GLOBAL INTERACTIONS A series edited by Gilbert M. Joseph and Emily S. Rosenberg This series aims to stimulate critical perspectives and fresh interpretive frameworks for scholarship on the history of the imposing global pres- ence of the United States. Its primary concerns include the deployment and contestation of power, the construction and deconstruction of cul- tural and political borders, the fluid meanings of intercultural encoun- ters, and the complex interplay between the global and the local. American Encounters seeks to strengthen dialogue and collaboration between histo- rians of U.S. international relations and area studies specialists. The series encourages scholarship based on multiarchival historical research. At the same time, it supports a recognition of the represen- tational character of all stories about the past and promotes critical in- quiry into issues of subjectivity and narrative. In the process, American Encounters strives to understand the context in which meanings related to nations, cultures, and political economy are continually produced, chal- lenged, and reshaped.

  • The Smacksmen of the North Sea
    JOHN RULE THE SMACKSMEN OF THE NORTH SEA LABOUR RECRUITMENT AND EXPLOITATION IN BRITISH DEEP-SEA FISHING, 1850-90 The modern history of British deep-sea fishing begins with the railway expansion of the mid-nineteenth century. Rapid transport and the increasing use of ice as a preservative made it possible for fresh sea fish to enter the diets of the inhabitants of inland towns. Fresh sea fish was regarded as almost a luxury food before the railway age, yet by the third quarter of the nineteenth century, it had become a major protein source for the working classes of the industrial towns, and the fried-fish shop had become a working-class institution. The sea-fishing industry underwent a vast market-induced expansion. The census of 1841 enumerated only 24,000 males as being employed in fishing. By 1881 there were 58,000. If the inland consumer ever gave thought to the fishermen who supplied his table, he probably conjured up a picture of a weather-beaten village fisherman going daily to the fishing grounds to return in the evening to his waiting wife and children, bringing the silver harvest of the sea. While he had been at sea his family had busied themselves baiting lines, making and mending nets, and, in the case of the fish wives, performing their traditional function of selling the catch. Such a picture may have been broadly true of the fishing villages of Scotland, Cornwall, Northumberland or the South coast, but a feature of the second half of the nineteenth century was the creation of a new kind of fisherman who crewed the sailing trawlers of the North Sea.
