No 232932, Working Papers from United States Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, Division of Economic Research

Abstract: A functional model of a fishing system on the Georges Bank was developed. Relationships among the functions were mathematically quanitified and programmed for computer usage. Return on investment (ROI) was determined for various operating conditions and techniques. An "optimum vessel" was designed, based on the design characteristics predicted by the computer output for maximum ROI.
