Interviews and boarding surveys were conducted in order to understand the actual usage of octopus pot in the coastal composite fishery in Jeollanam-do. According to the results of the interviews conduced by visiting the areas (Goheung, Yeosu and Wando), the number of octopus pots per nine-ton vessel were 30,000-80,000, and the number of daily usage pots were 7,000-10,000. The number of octopus pots per four-ton vessel was 40,000, and the number of daily usage pots were 4,000. As a result of the survey on two octopus pot fishing boats (9.77-ton and 4.99-ton) in Yeosu area, the daily catch weight of 9-ton class vessel was the minimum of 66.9 kg and the maximum of 159.6 kg. The daily catch weight of the four-ton class fishing vessel was from 31.3 kg to maximum 85.6 kg. The average number of octopus pot used per day in the nine-ton class vessel was 6,821 (the minimum of 6,031 and the maximum of 7,697) and 3,181 (the minimum of 2,282 and the maximum of 3,878) in the four-ton class vessel.

We conducted a questionnaire survey to analyze the current status of the coastal composite fisheries, as well as the improvement point in designing a new type coastal composite fishing boat suitable for Korean fishing environments from April to August 2017. The questionnaire composed of 20 questions about the features of the coastal composite fishing boat and fishing work. The survey sites were selected to cover all parts of the country by considering the geographical position. The significance testing for the response results was accessed by  test and ANOVA. The results revealed that more than half (59.1%) of the fishermen operated one day per voyage and operating alone topped with 22.5% in the number of crews, followed by 2 persons (20.3%) and 5 persons (22.1%). The navigation devices had a high rate of installation and GPS plotter ranked first in the devices. In addition, fish finder ranked first in fishing equipment, followed by net hauler. The most inconvenient work that they felt during the fishing operation was fish handing at 49.8% and other general fishing works like setting and hauling line, deck cleaning accounted for about 25%. The hardest work was the accident by ropes wrapped around propeller and the engine trouble came in second. The most inconvenient facilities to the present design of fishing boat was wheelhouse (76.7%), followed by fish hold (38.5%), and deck (35.1%). Furthermore, inconvenient points related to the movement of fishing gear, noise and vibration of engine, slippery deck and small fish hold exceeded 50%.

최근 선박의 전복사고는 무게중심의 부적절한 관리, 기상악화 또는 과도한 조타사용 등으로 인한 선체운동이 발생하면서 화물 또는 중량물이 이동하여 복원력 저하 또는 상실 등이 주된 원인으로 분석되고 있다. 따라서 전복사고를 예방하기 위해서는 위험한 횡경사가 발생하더라도 직립 상태로 되돌아오려는 복원성 확보가 이루어져야 한다. GM은 복원성을 판단하는 중요한 평가요소이며, 항해사는 GM을 복원 성 검토에 좋은 척도로 활용한다. 본 연구에서는 5년간 운항 중인 선박으로부터 수집한 복원성 자료를 바탕으로 운항 상태에 따른 선종별 GM을 선박 길이, 폭, 총톤수 등 선박제원으로 분석하였다. 선박 길이에 따른 GM 분포의 특징을 확인하였고, 선박 폭과 GM의 상관분석을 수 행한 후 선폭대비 GM의 비율을 산출한 후 과거의 비율과 비교하여 최근 경향을 검토하였다. 또한 선박 대형화 추세를 반영하기 위하여 총톤 수(GT)/선폭(B)을 이용하여 GM을 회귀분석하여 선종별 GM 추정을 위한 간이근사식 및 최소 GM을 제안하였다. 연구의 결과는 선박에서 항 해사가 안정적인 GM 확보의 검토를 위한 자료로 이용되길 기대된다.
