Oliveira, A., Fonseca, N. e Guedes Soares, C. (2006) , “Design of a Modern Purse Seiner Fishing Vessel for the Portuguese Costal Sea”, International Journal of Small Craft Technology (RINA Transactions), Vol. 148, Part B1, pp. 11-24

The paper presents the design development of a new purse seiner fishing vessel built in composite materials. The vessel is 24m long and it is designed mainly for the catch of sardine in the west coast of Portugal. The objective of the project, whose results are presented here, was to design a fishing vessel using the modern technologies and design procedures in order to improve the living and working conditions onboard and also to improve the earning capability of this type of ship. The paper presents the ship-owner requirements and the solutions found to comply with the requirements. It presents also the design development phases related to the hull bodylines, general arrangements, deck layout and engine and auxiliary machinery selection. Results from the resistance and propulsion tests are presented, together with the hull changes made to the initial design that resulted from the analysis of experimental data. The seakeeping analysis included model tests and numerical studies and it is concluded that the operability of the ship in waves is good.
