Morgère has established its leading position due to continual innovation and the creation of trawl doors.
Morgère will be promoting their range of trawl doors at the Icelandic Fisheries Exhibition
(25 - 27 September), which are proving popular with many Icelandic
skippers for their versatility and consistently good catch rates.
Both
the PV3L and V3 trawl door types will form the main focus of Morgère’s
presence at the expo, where they will be exhibiting on the Isfell stand
(D20), who is their Icelandic agent.
This latest generation of bottom doors is the result of more than 50 years’ research and based on the experience of previous generations. |
In
recent months several Icelandic skippers have praised the performance
of the PV3L door, including Skipper Guðmundsson Margeir of the Skinney
SF who described the doors as being “…easy to shoot and manoeuvre” and
are “powerful and stable”.
Morgère validates prototypes through rigourous offshore tests in real-life conditions. |
Ólafsson
Sigurður, skipper of the Sigurdur Olafsson SF, was equally impressed:
“Their size fits perfectly with my gear, and is effective and sits well,
enabling me to use less warp length than before.”
The
V3 door is also widely used in Iceland with its almost oval shape
allowing a smoother passage over rocky seabeds. The doors are
particularly successful for targeting groundfish and key features
include a consistent spread and excellent stability, with the capacity
for a very quick recovery.
Michel
Dagorn, director for Morgère, said: “Icelandic skippers have for a long
time recognised the benefits of using Morgère trawl doors, and their
feedback over the years has proved incredibly useful for us in refining
our designs to suit their particular requirements."
“We
are looking forward to meeting with existing and new customers at the
Icelandic Fisheries Exhibition. We are always impressed by the dynamism
and innovation that lies at the very heart of the Icelandic fisheries
sector", added Michel Dagorn.
Morgère always ensures that new and proposed products fully meet your expectations for successful fishing. |
