Title Utilization of treated wood, steel, fiberglass, ferrocement and aluminium in the construction of modern fishing boats and their comparativecost analysis
 
Names Balasubramanyan, R.
Date Issued 1973 (iso8601)
Abstract Modern fishing boats have to be built not only on perfect
Jines but also with sound and strong construction materials that
will ensure a long lasting trouble free service commensurate with
the heavy capital investment involved. Choice of construction
materials for fishing boats need careful scrutiny as they have to
perform too well under most aggressive environments- sea-water
and marine atmosphere. A number of alternative boat-building
materials are now available whose comparative merits and demerits
as well as comparative costs are brought out in this paper.
