Here are the boats, I couldn't find a picture of Ocean Venture but i'll keep my eye's open.

p.s You might have noticed that in the poll I changed Castlewood to Fruitful Harvest as the Castlewood is almost identical to Ryanwood as they are pair-trawling sister ships.

(a link to a picture of Ocean Venture available on reply by 'Gunnerman' ;), this message added 23 July 2008).

For single-boat trawling I'd prefer the 'Ocean Venture' (but a large pelagic-trawler/purser with RSW tanks would be even better) but the 'Ryanwood' is a pair-trawler which would also be good fun, especially in multi-player.

Cheers,

How many series of Trawlermen have there been? I have the first series on DVD and I was wondering how many more may become available.

Did you see the small crab boat at the very end?
Title: Re: Which trawler from trawler men do you prefer?
Post by: IRI5HJ4CK on September 04, 2008, 17:07:27
Yes! that guy was a nutter, all on his own, in that little crab boat, sliding around the deck. Honestly :D

That other guy that captain's Early Dawn, he's a complete idiot, he's already shreaded two nets, and a person was swept over bored and died while he was captaining her, he takes too many risks, i think it was the episode before last, he went out in sea's that were so rough that the big trawlers would not go out in. Yet, his trawler is the smallest in the fleet, and he went out?! he acts like an idiot too.

He is also the youngest skipper in the fleet (only 23) so I suspect his inexperience is problem.
Title: Re: Which trawler from trawler men do you prefer?
Post by: Graeme Heddle on September 04, 2008, 20:38:52
Ye well anyway, the guy who's on that crab boat, if he is who i think he is, he's related to me.

Unfortunatly I didn't see Trawlermen on wednesday (10th sept.) but I heard that the man on the crab-boat wasn't who I thought it was.

Thats true, but, common sence tell you that you just don't take that risk, there are skippers that have been trawling for years, he should be paying attention to their experience, learn something from them.

Well you would think that there would be a rule that you have to be over a certain age before being a captain an that you would have to prove yourself you can deal with that sort of thing before becoming a captain.
