Abstract

The probability for collisions between commercial vessels and traditional fishing vessels remains relatively high in Indonesian waters. Some cases indicated that the crash between traditional fishing boat and commercial vessel resulted from the failure of large vessel on detecting the fishing boat clearly, especially at night or during foggy weather conditions. This problem can be overcome by installing Radar Reflector on fishing vessels so that the presence of fishing vessels can be detected on the radar screen of large vessels. The possibility of using radar reflectors on traditional fishing vessels in Indonesia is assessed by taking into account the technical and also the social aspects of the acceptance of fishing communities. The radar reflector design is adjusted to the ornamentation found on traditional fishing vessels to increase the level of acceptance of the fishing community. The technical aspects were reviewed from the recommendations submitted by FAO regarding application of radar reflectors on fishing vessels.
