Chapter 036: Diego's Message

After leaving the dock, Diego directly handed over the rudder to Bei Hai's hands, and sat on the chair next to him to guide, the so-called guidance is just to say two words from time to time, and the rest of the time is to brag.

Turning the rudder, Bei Hai pushed the lever to the maximum, and the speed of the boat increased rapidly, and the waves made a splash on the bow of the boat.

"Be careful, be careful! Hurry up and slow down" As soon as he saw the speed of the ship increase, Diego immediately shouted at Bei Hai.

Bei Hai was very obedient and pulled down the lever a little more, back to the speed just now, although he did it, but his heart was very unhappy, the speed of the boat ran to the fastest and it was not energetic at all, and now the speed of fourteen knots really made Bei Hai a little impatient! It was sunshine! Blue sky! Infinite blue sea! Now I encountered a snail-speed boat, and my high-spirited feet were immediately thrown into the ditch.

I thought to myself: Hey, it's a pity it's not my own ship!

Diego is in his fifties, so he naturally saw that Bei Hai was a little troublesome, and explained casually: "It's not economical to be so fast, the fast is the high fuel consumption, and the speed is the most economical now!" As a captain, there's one thing you have to take into account, and that's cost! ”。

"I see!" Bei Hai said a little against his will.

Next, Diego let Bei Hai make a few light turns in the boat, and as the corners became more and more urgent, Diego became more and more assured about Bei Hai's driving level.

Diego pointed to the coordinates on the electronic display screen in front of him, signaling Bei Hai to drive towards this point, and turned his head to Bei Hai and asked: "Hull, your ship is driving well, at least much better than Ista's, and it will only have such a level if it has been driven for at least several years before."

"It's been a while!" Bei Hai had to explain like this, if he didn't explain it like this, would he say that as soon as he held the rudder, the feeling of standing on the surfboard last time came back.

This feeling is indescribable, as if it gives myself a kind of confidence that I have no reason to believe that I will be able to control this ship, and I can let it move according to my own will!

"No wonder you have to take so many certificates and decide to become a captain yourself, it turns out that you have worked on a fishing boat before!" Diego nodded when he heard Bei Hai say this.

Bei Hai smiled and nodded: "I used to work as a fisherman with my grandfather for a while when I was very young, and I wanted to switch to Gloucester to catch tuna!" ”。

Diego explained for himself, did he still have to say that he had never done fishing before, and this was the first time? How do you explain catching fish in a row after that?

"Tuna is not easy to catch, especially in the last few years. There are almost no big fish in the offshore waters, and if they do, they almost all meet the catch requirements, that is, they are under 6 feet (185 cm). As a result, those of us who rely on tuna for food have to travel farther to catch a fish that meets the rules, and the deeper you go, the more difficult it is to catch this fish! ”。

Speaking of which, Diego slapped an unturned display screen again, Bei Hai knew that this was a fish finder, which acted a bit like his own earth dog, but it was too far worse than the function of the earth dog, and this thing could only tell you if there were any fish within one or two hundred meters and the size of the fish, as for whether it was a tuna or a blue shark, it would depend on the captain's experience to judge.

"Although this thing is easy to use, the more it is in the deep sea, the smaller it is, because bluefin tuna lives in the deep sea, and beyond a certain depth, its role is very small, and it can't even detect whether there is tuna at the bottom of the water! For us captains, the first thing is to find fish! Only when you find the fish will it be possible to move on to the next step! ”。

Diego said to Bei Hai, watched Bei Hai listen carefully and continued: "Now the tuna man who is looking for the strongest fish is Jade of the Hunter, and the other is Finch of the Christine, one of them is good at finding fish and the other is good at catching big fish!" ……”。

After listening to Diego say this, Bei Hai understood that the relationship between these fishermen was not very good, in other words, the competition was very fierce.

First of all, no one wants to share their information, because this thing is a lot of money for the tuner! If you tell someone about your good information, and someone comes to the place where you found the fish and dragged the fish that you had a chance to catch onto the boat, will they give you a dime? Who wants to do that without money? Who doesn't feed their families on this?

You may think that Bei Hai is a good listener, and Diego talks about a lot of things, the main thing is the matter between the tuna men moored at the South Pier, which boat has a high level of fishing, which boat has a bad captain, and which captain is the most annoying.

When it comes to the sea, the words of the tuna fishermen become very untrustworthy, everyone wants to know the information of others, but they are unwilling to share their own information, so that almost all the tuna captains have no trust with each other every year.

"When you start fishing, you'll know who your friends are and who you hate to talk to," said Diego, patting his legs and looking at the sea in front of him, "The fisherman with the richest catches in the whole fishing season is the real fisherman, but unfortunately there is only one first place, and this year I think it will be me!" If you have a boat, I guarantee that all the information I tell you is true! ”。

Bei Hai smiled: "Then good luck to you!" Hopefully I'll get a boat during the fishing season."

"I thought it would be difficult at first, but after a week or two of the season it was much easier, and after a month it was easier, and the charter price would come down a lot! However, because you are a newbie, the shipowners will not choose the method of sharing, and may raise the price of the charter boat."

Next, Diego popularized this knowledge to Bei Hai, and even told Bei Hai some of the shipowners he knew who had ships. Don't underestimate this kind of information, renting a boat is always to understand the quality of the ship, just like when you rent a car, you encounter a bad car halfway to break down, that's not enough for you to worry about! This dock has been open for so many years, and Diego provides such information, which is naturally very valuable for Bei Hai, a newcomer.

"Thank you! Diego, if I'm lucky enough and you ask me for information, I promise to tell the truth! Bei Hai looked at Diego and said.

"Then let's decide" After speaking, he raised his hand and patted Bei Hai gently, which can be regarded as a high-five oath.

Now that promise is just a joke for Diego. In his heart, Diego thinks that Bei Hai will not become a professional fisherman who can feed his family on tuna in a year or two, as for a few years later? Maybe it won't take a year for the young people in front of you to be bankrupt by tuna, and what will happen in a few years!

Along the way, I don't know that Diego has popularized a tuna lesson for Bei Hai, and he has to say a few sea areas where it is easy to find tuna, of course, he also understands that these places don't say that the tuna man is an ordinary rookie who doesn't go on vacation, and whether he catches or not depends on everyone's supernatural powers.

Almost the whole way to the fishing ground was Bei Hai driving the boat, and Diego was guiding and bragging while occasionally popularizing the boat's instruments, what public radio channels and gyroscopes, marine radars, and so on. These things are not state-of-the-art, because the tuna fishing boats are very small, and of course they are not equipped with much, and the big boats, such as longliners, have water thermometers and some instruments for current information.

These things are so big that Bei Hai knows how to use them, anyway, this intensive training is still very satisfactory for Bei Hai.

Diego is also very satisfied with Bei Hai, thinking that this Asian young man is good, of course, the skill of driving the boat is the main reason why Diego sees Bei Hai well, for the tuna captain, what he takes is the catch results, Bei Hai has no catch, but it is so young to be able to drive the boat so slippery is also impressive.
