Anecdotes
The Transportation Safety Board of Canada reports that "On 13 March 2000, the owner/operator of a salmon troller slipped and fell while working alone in the vessel's fish hold. The left pant leg of his protective clothing became entangled in the rotating propeller shaft flange. Unable to free himself, his left foot and leg were drawn into the space between the flange and shaft housing and were crushed. He stalled the main engine and stopped the flange's rotation by forcing his right foot into the same limited space in which his left leg was caught. Later, in hospital, his left leg was amputated above the knee and his right foot underwent extensive surgical reconstruction." "The "C- Joy" is a commercial salmon troller built in 1978 of moulded fibreglass construction. Below decks forward is crew accommodation. Abaft it is the machinery space, aft of which (and separated from it by a watertight transverse bulkhead) is a refrigerated fish hold, at the after end of which is another watertight transverse bulkhead. Abaft of this bulkhead is a lazarette terminating in a transom stern. On the weather deck forward is a short foredeck and an enclosed wheelhouse, abaft of which is a main working deck on which is a raised hatch that provides access to the fish hold below it. Near the stern of the vessel is a recessed transverse area, known as the "cockpit", where fishing operations are conducted."
