What is checked by Seafish during the survey of a new fishing vessel?
During the survey of a new fishing vessel, the boat will be inspected to make sure it complies with the Seafish Construction Standards. If the boat is under 7m in length overall, we will only check the hull structure. If it is 7m in length or over, we will check the hull structure and the outfit (including aspects of pumping, piping, machinery, structural fire protection, handrails, etc).
