It raises the possibility that the hull may have lost its strength because it was unable to overcome the weight of the catch.

Venus, which suffered an accident, is a vessel that plays a leading role in the six-vessel fishing fleet.

Most sailors travel because they play a key role in rounding the net and trapping the meat.

The Coast Guard believes the stricken vessel fell toward the net as the next carrier was coming in after carrying the netted fish once.

It’s a hard accident to see in the fishing industry, and the Coast Guard believes the vessel was unable to overcome the weight of the net catch.

A similar situation can be estimated from the statements of the surviving crew.

There is also the possibility that the ship, which could not withstand the weight, may have lost much of its hull strength due to the influence of waves from the carrier.

(Kong Gil-young / Professor of Navigation, Korea Maritime University) There is a reflected wave that comes out when a wave hits a large ship. The boat itself is tilted, which can lead to an accident.)

The ship itself has shown no problems in recent inspections.

It was found that there were no major abnormalities in the mid-term inspection in June and the regular inspection last year, and there were no problems with the operation of the life raft.

The Coast Guard intends to analyze the statements of the crew, the situation at the time and the condition of the hull to determine the cause of the accident.
