Flyshooter & Seine

Thyborøn Trawlbinderi delivers the entire range of seines for big and small flyshooters and seine boats. 

All seines are custom-designed to the customer’s specifications, using the latest computer programs, which calculate all important information on how the seine will behave behind the customer’s own vessel for the relevant type of fishing. 

Design and drawings are produced by means of the CADTRAWL tool and the DynamiT calculation program. This enables the customer to see if the seine fulfils the expectations with respect to:

• Horizontal and vertical mouth
• Towing resistance
• Length of bridles and wires
• Towing speed

The program illustrates the seine viewed from the front, from the side and from above. It is also possible to zoom in on a detail. The designer can read the load in any mesh and find the vertical and horizontal mouth of the seine. 

Finally, the resistance of the trawl is calculated to make sure it is compatible with the towing capacity of the vessel.

The computer programs allow us to test several alternative solutions before the seine is put into production. The calculations are so precise that it is not necessary to test the seine in a test tank.
