Abstract Energy yield of fishing trawlers fitted with Ashok Leyland Marine (ALM) diesel engines was studied. Trawlers were classified based on the engine horsepower and, the energy yield of five engine models was worked out. The energy yield was close to unity for trawlers with ALM 370, ALM 400 and ALM 402 engines, but for those with ALM 680 engines it was the lowest at 0.66 kg catch per litre of fuel consumed. The energy yield was highest for trawlers with 30 HP engine.
