[Explanation] On September 10, the fishing boat "Qionglinyu 03399" successfully sailed in Ningbo Xiangshan Shipu.
The fishing boat has a total length of 68.6 meters, a width of 10.8 meters, a drainage of 1595.6 tons, a depth of 4.7 meters, a maximum endurance of 5000 nautical miles, 74 beds, 49 fishing positions, and a total cost of 20 million yuan. It is by far the largest in China. Fishing boat.
A few days ago, the reporter came to a shipyard in Ningbo, Zhejiang and saw the fishing boat "Qiong Linyu 03399" anchored on the shore.
The captain of the ship, He Xiaohong, began fishing at the age of 17, and has been captain for 32 years.
He Xiaohong told reporters that from the initial small wooden boat to the FRP boat to the current fishing boat "Qiong Linyu 03399", his working environment has become better and better, and more and more sea areas can be reached.

When I was young, I followed my dad to live a fishing life. Now at least six or seven (boats) have been (drove), and the seventh boat. The first time I went to sea, the boat was made of wood. The first time I went to sea, I wanted to stay away from the sea. One point), not close, seasickness, seasickness is very serious.
The boat was turbulent. People who hadn't been in the sea before saw the (sea) and became seasick. If they didn't eat for two days, they lost their energy.
Fear, really afraid.
This ship is suitable, ideal, large, stable, fast, and half as fast. Our original purse seine has eight or nine knots, and it only hits 10 or 9 knots at full speed. This ship should be able to reach full speed. 15 knots.

At that time, the internet was not very good. I had to call satellite phones from the land. (One time) I noticed tropical depression outside two days earlier. I didn’t know the speed was changing very fast. I anchored away this morning. , This typhoon will arrive at noon tomorrow.
I have encountered the danger several times. The tornado is only a hundred meters away from me. It follows (the boat). When the boat encounters big winds and waves and encounters a typhoon, it always chases after a hundred and dozens of nautical miles. I ran to Hainan. , He followed behind, and at that time he wanted to change his career, but he really didn't want to do it.
The current network is good, you know that there was a tropical depression a week ago. In 2001, when the network was not good, there was a typhoon when it was not updated. Now it is different.
[Explanation] The reporter saw on the ship that the first and second floors of the hull are the crew’s bedrooms. Each room is spacious and the living facilities on the ship are relatively complete.
He Xiaohong couldn't hide his excitement as the captain of China's largest fishing boat. He hoped to send the seafood he caught to all parts of the country.
As for the current life, He Xiaohong has both enthusiasm for work and concern for family.

It’s enough to have this boat. You can run anywhere. It’s enough to run a fishing boat for 5,000 nautical miles. I just want to have a father and a mother at home, and I just want to go home to see them.
(Reporter: Do you have any plans to continue working at sea for how long?) 60 years old is enough. Retirement is enough. I can't stay for longer and go back to enjoy the blessing.
Accompany mom and dad first, they are also old.
[Explanation] It is understood that, unlike large-scale fishing by other types of fishing boats, sea fishing mainly focuses on fishing grouper, bigeye, rice fish, tuna and other economically valuable species, and will not be caught with fry.
Therefore, fishing boats do relatively little damage to marine ecological resources.
