Simrad's New Sonar Direction
Simrad invited distributors from all over the world to join them onboard the M/V Finnmarken, which left Tromsø harbor on 5th October, reaching Trondheim on the morning of 7th October. Simrad presented three new sensors for its PI trawl monitoring system: the Geometry Sensor, Seine Sounder and combination Spread/Depth sensors.
The fisheries research community was well represented onboard M/V Finnmarken. Simrad's fishery research experts discussed the latest high-tech developments in its tools for fishery research, focusing on multibeam systems such as the ME70 Multibeam Echosounder and MS70 Multibeam Sonar.
63 delegates from 20 countries joined Simrad on the two day event, which saw all attendees gaining a 'Polar Circle Certificate' from the Captain as the route to Trondheim took them through the heart of the Norwegian fishing grounds and past some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.
