Photographer’s Note

In my recent trip to Visakhapatnam, I went out for taking some shots in the morning. This is one of from that. The sky and the sea created a different bluish environment. The place was very calm and I could hear only the sound of endless waves...

-:Fishing Boat:-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A fishing vessel is a ship or boat used to catch fish in the sea, or on a lake or river. There are many different kinds of vessels used in both commercial fishing and in recreational fishing.

The earliest fishing vessels were presumably craft such as rafts, dugout canoes, and coracles, and not intended for use any great distance from the shoreline.

Prior to the 1950s there was little standardization of fishing boats. Designs could vary between ports and boatyards.

Traditionally boats were built out of wood, but wood is not often used now because of cost and the difficulty in obtaining suitable timber. Fibreglass is used increasingly in smaller fishing vessels up to 25 meters (100 tons), while steel is usually used on vessels above 25 meters.
