Chapter 22 Modification of fishing boats [Please recommend, please recommend]
The cost of sea fishing varies from high to low.
This does not depend on the size of the boat, but on the horsepower.
The greater the horsepower of the boat, the higher the fuel consumption and the higher the cost.
The cost has basically been negotiated.
6,000 yuan per fishing position, three days and two nights. On this basis, an additional 500 yuan fee will be added for each additional day of stay.
Trolling fees, depending on the sea area, are 800 yuan and 500 yuan per hour.
The last thing is that Chen Yuan and the others will take 20% of the profit exceeding 5,000 yuan.
This profit is after deducting their overseas expenses. He Fei and Yang Xun worked in pairs, that is, they had to earn enough 10,000 yuan, and the excess would be given to Chen Yuan and others as commission.
After He Fei saw the rough navigation chart they planned, he said it was no problem and paid a deposit of 3,000 yuan.
Luck is very important when fishing in the open sea, and even one fish can be worth the boat fare. This is not many, but it is not uncommon. Chen Yuan and the others are not a sightseeing fishing boat, but will actively look for fish.
After the negotiation was completed, Chen Yuan and the others had lunch at Wang Peng's place, and discussed installing an ultra-low temperature freezer on the fishing boat. The minimum temperature of an ultra-low temperature freezer must reach minus 80 degrees Celsius.
In addition to the freezer, an air conditioner must be installed in the cabin.
"There are two options for the freezer. One is to install a 2-length freezer and remove a row of seats in the cockpit. The other option is to convert the chilled cabin and No. 1 live fish compartment on the stern deck into a freezer, but it must just fit the size
The freezer needs to be customized." After dinner, Wang Peng took a ruler to the fishing boat and measured the size.
Installing a freezer on a fishing boat is easy to do, but difficult to do.
Chen Yuan requires that the freezer be at least 900 liters. If it is not done properly, the stability of the fishing boat will be destroyed when the freezer is full.
That is to say, this fishing boat is wider, so it has better room for modification.
"It was changed to a chilled cabin and a live fish cabin. The space in the cabin is already relatively small and it is difficult to change it," said Chen Yuan.
"Then do we need to replace the generator?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"No. The generator of this fishing boat is very large. I want you to replace it with a smaller one. A 35kw generator is a bit wasteful." Wang Peng said.
However, there are built-in lights around the hull of this fishing boat. It is used for night fishing at sea. The 35kw engine is not a waste.
“How long does it take to customize a freezer?”
"The time is not sure. I will first research whether there is a ready-made freezer of the same size... If not, then customize it. If it is customized, it will take time at the fastest."
The last thing is the air conditioning.
It is very simple to install an air conditioner on a fishing boat...
It's summer now, and it would be difficult to spend the night at sea without air conditioning.
After talking about this, Zhou Sheng also washed the deck of the fishing boat, took Chen Yuan to the bank, and transferred the money for the stock purchase to Chen Yuan.
For a fishing boat worth 1.61 million yuan, Chen Yuan received 800,000 yuan from Zhou Sheng.
Chen Yuan holds 60% of the shares and Zhou Sheng holds 40%.
"I think when we get the yacht driving license, we can sail our own boat out to sea... With my ability, if I can't catch fish, why can't I go into the sea and shoot a few fish back?" Zhou Sheng said.
"The domestic sea conditions are no better than those abroad." Chen Yuan shrugged and said, "Being a ship owner, you have to learn a lot. Don't be in a hurry, take your time..."
I rode my bike home, called Chen Xin and Zhou Lan, and went to the Maritime Academy to sign up. Clubs can also sign up, but the cost is higher.
Taking the yacht driver's license test is different from the car driver's license test.
To get a car driver's license, you need to learn as you go, but to get a yacht driver's license, you have to wait for at least a dozen people to take a class...
The last class had only started for two days, so Chen Yuan and the others had to wait.
"Did you catch a mackerel when you went out to sea today?" Chen Xin asked on the way back.
"I caught three mackerel."
"Where's the fish?" Zhou Lan said.
"One is for Master and the others. The other one is for others..." Chen Yuan said, "That mackerel weighs more than ten kilograms. Can you finish it?"
Zhou Sheng chuckled and said, "I also caught a big marlin weighing more than 400 kilograms."
"More than four hundred pounds?" Zhou Lan was driving and turned to look over: "Heavier than me..."
"The expression on his face is that he has never seen the world." Zhou Sheng looked at his sister with a dark look on his face and said, "The largest swordfish I have ever caught weighs more than 600 kilograms."
“What kind of fish is a big marlin?”
"The old man and the sea, do you know?" Zhou Sheng said.
"I know...I haven't seen it."
"The big fish inside is the big marlin."
"Where's the fish?" Chen Xin asked.
"sold."
"More than four hundred kilograms, how much did it cost?"
"Ninety thousand yuan."
"Only ninety thousand?"
"Only 90,000..." Chen Yuan looked at his sister speechlessly and said, "Can you earn 90,000 by working on screws for a year?"
Chen Yuan's words not only touched Chen Xin's pain, but also hurt Zhou Lan. The two of them were in a bad mood instantly...
Zhou Sheng chuckled and said, "Ninety thousand yuan is a lot of money. Send us to a driving school and we can learn to drive."
"Don't you have to wait until the subject is over before you learn it?"
"Study early and take the exam early," Chen Yuandao said.
There are many people learning to drive here at Hailing Driving School, mostly young people.
Chen Yuan asked Chen Xin and the others to wait in the car, and then he and Zhou Sheng went over to contact the coach, and were quickly arranged to be put on the car.
The two of them rarely touched cars, so they started with the accelerator, brake, and clutch.
It seems that Chen Xin and Zhou Lan can both drive, which seems very simple. But after Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng got started, because they had never touched a car before, and they couldn't control their strength well...
Start the car, release the clutch, and turn off the engine several times.
After practicing all afternoon, Chen Yuan and the others were finally able to drive their car around the field, but they had not yet touched on things like reversing into the garage and parking on the side.
Back in Zhapo, Chen Yuan called Lin Xinhai: "Master, I'm going out for dinner tonight, and I'll call my wife to join us."
"What to eat?"
"Whatever, you choose. Call Wang Peng and join us."
"Let's eat hot pot." Lin Xinhai said.
"Okay." Chen Yuan said with a smile: "I haven't had hot pot for a long time, where is the location."
"It's only after five o'clock, why don't you go there now?"
"Go sit and eat slowly."
"Okay." Lin Xinhai said and hung up the phone.
After Chen Yuan received the address from Lin Xinhai, he gave the address to Zhou Lan.
This hot pot restaurant is well decorated and has many dishes.
The beef is more than 30 yuan a plate, and the portion is quite generous. The oysters are 3 yuan a piece, and they are good-sized. There are many kinds of seafood, and the price is right.
Chen Yuan and the others went over and asked for a private room, and then ordered a mandarin duck pot with clear soup and red soup. Zhou Sheng took Zhou Lan out to order...
Chen Yuan was also with Chen Xin, going outside to see the seafood.
"Oysters only cost three yuan each, so cheap." Chen Xin said.
"It's rare but strange. If you go to a breeding farm, you can buy a sack for a few dozen yuan." Chen Yuan saw fresh king crabs and said, "Would you like to eat king crabs?"
"350 yuan? 1 catty or one piece?"
"1 pound."
The two characters "1 catty" are relatively small.
There are relatively few king crabs now, and they are live king crabs. This is a hot pot restaurant, and the price of 350 yuan per catty is still about the same.
If it is the king crab fishing season, fresh king crab should only cost more than 100 yuan per catty. In different seasons, the price of the same seafood varies greatly. This is the same as off-season vegetables...
There's a power outage. The laptop I'm using is going to run out of power...it's annoying.
