Pole & Line Tuna Vessel

The 15m Pole & Line Tuna Vessel project is a comprehensive 3D reverse-engineering and visualization effort, meticulously constructed entirely from photo and video references without access to official technical drawings. Developed to support pre-construction design decisions and operational communication, the model introduces functional improvements, such as a redesigned wheelhouse with enlarged windows and a lowered console for optimized skipper visibility. Beyond its robust exterior, the visualization extensively details specialized commercial fishing mechanics, featuring functional bow water sprayers, integrated live bait wells, and a complete deck-flow simulation with a sloped tuna slide and sluice gate system that seamlessly directs the catch into storage holds.
