- FOOTNOTES: (Please see
report description
for complete information!)
- (1) Please read the Report
Description for a detailed explanation of the
vessels represented in this report and those excluded
due to a licensing exemption.
- (2) This report is based on information provided on vessel
license application forms. The information may contain
omissions or errors.
If information is omitted (unknown) the sum of the vessels
in the category will be less than the total number of
vessels. For example, the sum of the vessels by hull type
will be less than the total number of vessels in the area
if this information not been provided on all applications.
- (3) Vessels can be used for more than one activity and can use
multiple gear types. As a result, in these categories a
vessel may be counted multiple times. Some vessels may not
be counted at all if the activity or gear information was
not provided on the vessel license application.
- (4) The Number of Vessels Represented is the number of
vessels used to calculate the average, median, and
skewness. Since the vessel application may contain
omissions, not all vessels can be used when developing this
information. A low percentage of the total vessels
indicates that the figure comes from a very small group and
may not be representative of the area's fleet.
