Common sense rules tokeen yourvesselfuel-efficient

摘要

The typical fishing vessel is not very energy-efficient. Broad beam, heavy displacement, oversized engine, andhydraulic and electrical systems all absorb energy from increasingly expensive diesel fuel or gasoline. After all, the primary consideration isn't energy efficiency, it's catching and hauling fish and keeping you safe — and reasonably comfortable. You could buy an optimally efficient vessel if you had enough money, but you wouldn't like using it.
