ABSTRACT

Information on technical variability of fishing vessels is expected to describe the dimensions and shapes of the fishing vessel. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct study related to the number and technical characteristics of the fishing vessels in a particular area. This study was conducted in PPI Palabuharatu, Sukabumi, West Java. The purpose of this study is to calculate the number of the longline fishing vessel and identify its variabilities and Performance in PPI Palabuhanratu, Sukabumi, and West Java. Therefore, census was employed as the methodology of this study. Data collected consisted of the number of longline fishing vessel and its main dimension and calculated in numeric analysis. The results of the Technical Performance of Longline Fishing Vessel analysis were then compared with the of minimum standard value derived from criteria of Inamura and Yamazaki (1968) and the research of Iskandar and Pujiati (1995). Based on the result, it was that the number of longline fishing vessel was 30 units and the value of main dimension was below in Inamura standart for L/B but in L/D and B/D upper from Inamura. In coefficient of fineness Longline fishing vessel are below from the criteria of Inamura.
