Abstract

See full text

This disclosure provides wave-powered vessels equipped for fish stock management. The vessels have observational sensors for monitoring fish, a positional sensor to determine the geographical location of the vessel, and a transmitter for sending data to a central control unit. The observational sensors may be deployed on a tow body pulled behind the vessel, or the tow body may relay information from sensors located on a separate unit on the bottom or at a defined depth. The control unit communicates with each of the monitor vessels to direct navigation and obtain data from the sensors. Substance distribution vessels in the fleet are equipped to distribute fish food in target area for the purpose of fish farming.
