2 VÓNIN ZENITH NEW GROUNDFISH TRAWL ZENITH 700 10 metres VÓNIN’S ZENITH REACHES HIGH Gear designers at Vónin have come up with a new trawl design, developed for versatility, and optimised for both pair teams and single trawling. The result is the Zenith trawl, which has already lived up to the figures predicted during the design process as trawlers have seen better fishing for saithe, haddock, cod, redfish and greenland halibut. Even though the Zenith trawl has fewer meshes in the fishing circle, it has a higher headline height and a greater spread, generated by optimising cutting rates and hanging ratios.The trawl is also designed to maintain a steady ground contact. The skippers of both pair and single trawlers who tested the Zenith trawl prototypes have reported back that it sits comfortably on the seabed in all weather conditions, and when fishing is heavy it gathers strong marks of fish effectively. Streamlined to optimise the volume of netting in the gear and minimise maintenance, Vónin’s Zenith combines traditional features and requirements with new thinking and it can be scaled to size, while also being a versatile design that can be tailor-rigged for each trawler’s engine power and deck layout so that it matches net drum capacity or the trawl lane space available on board. • HIGHER REACH • GOOD GROUND CONTACT • VERSATILE DESIGN • OPTIMIZED CUTTING RATIO • EFFECTIVE ON STRONG MARKS
