All our vessels are well equipped with Freezing and Ice slurry facilities, Vessel Monitoring Systems. Some of and our longline vessels also include onboard ultra-low freezer facilities to maintain high quality of sashimi tuna super Freezer facilities.
Our crew and fishermen undergo training on quality assurance procedures prior to joining, with regular training updates, and lucrative performance and quality incentives.

We understand that managing a deep fishing longline fleet requires careful attention to many different aspects of the business. From sustainable and ethical fishing practices to crew health and experience, there are many factors that must be considered to ensure the success of the fleet. Our experienced crew members are better equipped to handle the challenges that come with deep fishing, and they are more likely to be able to identify and address issues before they become major problems. Our experienced managers are better able to make informed decisions about everything from fishing methods to maintenance schedules.
