In India, fishing vessel design has evolved significantly to meet the demands of local fisheries. Traditional designs, such as the catamaran and the vallam, are still used in coastal regions for their stability and efficiency in shallow waters. Modern Indian fishing vessels incorporate advanced materials like fiberglass and steel, improving durability and reducing maintenance costs. These vessels are equipped with features like ice storage facilities and GPS navigation systems, enhancing the productivity of Indian fishermen. The design focuses on fuel efficiency and environmental sustainability, aligning with India\“s growing emphasis on eco-friendly practices in the fishing industry. |
