would like to see ocean venture and fruitful bough

Graeme Heddle · « **Reply #5 on:** July 05, 2008, 20:37:18 »

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.

If no more votes are added in the next five days (starting wednesday 9th July) I may lock this poll.

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,

Has anyone seen the new series of Trawlermen which began on Wednesday (20.8.2008)?

RJK · « **Reply #11 on:** August 25, 2008, 11:32:54 »

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.

The third series has just begun to be shown but as far as I know only the first series is available on DVD.

IRI5HJ4CK · « **Reply #13 on:** August 28, 2008, 12:17:32 »

its great! really my sort of thing.

Captain Darling · « **Reply #14 on:** August 29, 2008, 02:48:35 »

Yeah I watch it on BBC.. Its great.. the last episode they lost their fishing net and they had to recover it from the ocean floor..

Its a great program.

llamalord · « **Reply #15 on:** August 29, 2008, 04:49:16 »

Sounds like a knock off of Deadliest Catch.

But I do like the boats.

It isn't realy a knock off Deadliest Catch, I mean there is a difference betweeen Pots and nets you know.

Did anyone see the episode of 'Trawlermen' last night (3rd sept.)?

IRI5HJ4CK · « **Reply #21 on:** September 04, 2008, 16:57:16 »

I did!

Graeme Heddle · « **Reply #22 on:** September 04, 2008, 17:00:55 »

Did you see the small crab boat at the very end?

IRI5HJ4CK · « **Reply #23 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

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.

davepusey · « **Reply #24 on:** September 04, 2008, 20:36:48 »

He is also the youngest skipper in the fleet (only 23) so I suspect his inexperience is problem.
