Many of the measures have the greatest effectiveness in bad weather and under extreme conditions and therefore the measures could also lead to a reduction in the required installed performance of approximately 32-35%. In relation to the ambitious sub-goal of saving 40% fuel, the project has not quite reached its goal. In order to achieve this goal, in addition to optimizing the vessel itself, there is also a need to include an optimization of the resistance on the trawl farm. The project has not come up with special measures to reduce damage to raw materials during boarding. Early in the project, direct pumping from a trawl bag, pumping from a trawl bag into the surface and the use of a lock chamber were discussed. The user group believed that with the focus one has received on quality / small halls, there were no compelling reasons to design new forms of boarding. With increased stocks in the cod fisheries and pelagic trawls, the situation may be different. Proposals for safer work operations on trawl decks are summarized in two solution proposals for varying degrees of complexity and "moon landing" which are called "The trawlers of the near future" and "The trawlers of the more distant future", respectively. Both solution proposals include both steering / moving of trawl blocks and gear handling for a vessel towing two trawls (double trawl).
