Summary:The possibilities and drawbacks of the use of sails for the propulsion of fishing vessels are discussed in this article. After summarising a number of foreign design studies and projects some general design concepts and criteria are given. The Dutch fisheries of today do not seem to have many possibilities for energy savings with sailpower. The intention of this paper is to start ideas in this field rather than to present a detailed feasibility study.
