Fishing companies that catch hake for local and international markets, delivering R6.7 billion to the South African economy annually, have cautioned that sensible rights allocations are necessary to preserve international competitiveness and jobs in coastal areas.
On behalf of the South African government, Minister Senzeni Zokwana has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with his Namibian counterpart, Minister Bernard Essau. This represents an agreement between the two neighbouring countries to work together in various matters concerning fisheries as the two countries share a common border.
The crew of a fishing vessel were recovered from liferafts after sending a distress call on Saturday. The vessel was almost thirty miles offshore from Saldahna Bay in South Africa when the distress call was received by the SAMSA Maritime Rescue Coordinating Centre (MRCC) in Cape Town.
Damen’s first Fishing Seminar, held in Cape Town, has been heralded a great success, with more than 60 participants attending from a broad cross-section of the industry, including the five major South African fishing companies.
A new vessel leasing fund, specifically designed for African shipowners, is to be presented by Damen at its first Fishing Seminar being held in Cape Town this month. The fund is of particular interest to smaller, private vessel owners, according to Damen’s finance manager Francesco Verschuren, who will be speaking at the seminar on 22nd November.
