Last year, the EU issued Ghana with a “yellow card” for failing to monitor and control Ghanaian-flagged fishing vessels, among other problems. This means it risks being labelled as a “non-cooperating country” in the fight against illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. On the beach at Cape Coast, Kwabena Taiwa, 17, is getting ready to take his boat out to the fishing nets.
The 21XrT follows that example and even ups the bar, equipped with a Mercury 250 Pro XS that made 30 mph in 7.6 seconds and hit a top speed over 71 mph. At these speeds, the Pro-Trim steering-mounted switches for the jack plate and power trim make for a safer, more secure ride. There’s a molded-in platform for a foot throttle under the console, and we recommend it.
(The Welsh name for these little vessels is cwrwgl.) Most Welsh people, like myself, feel the coracle is a unique part of our culture. The tradition of fishing from coracles in Britain goes back to at least the Bronze Age, possibly further. Every day, streams of children make their way towards Cape Coast’s fishing port from the surrounding communities.
Some fishers stand on the rocks, pulling on a rope to secure a fishing net – a traditional way of fishing in this part of Ghana. Others swim out to their wooden boats with supplies for a long day on the water. From foundation to finish, a wealth of information is available on sustainable construction methods. Entire volumes have been published on individual green and natural building techniques! But with so many different ideas from which to choose, there is no single resource that allows an owner or builder to quickly and objectively compare the merits of each system for their particular project. One coracle expert, Quentin Page, raises coracles in this traditional style.
By analyzing the fluid dynamics of water as it passes along the hull and its various appendages, it’s possible to reduce performance-robbing drag. The struts and rudders on the newest Merritt allow water to flow to the propellers with less disturbance, reducing noise and vibration. Stewart says the idea of creating a sure thing to win cash and prizes turned out to be one whale of a fish tale that sunk the fishing fortunes of Runyan and Cominsky. The Triton 21XrT’s charcoal and black metal-flake gelcoat with crisp tape lines and white accents shows that Triton knows how to build boats that are strong, functional and beautiful.
