Abstract
    Data on the technical dimensions and economics performance of Dutch stern freezer trawlers are given. Several variables are related and their regressions are made. For an analysis of the economic results in relation to vessel dimensions, a range of volumes of the fish-hold is chosen as independent variable, and other technical parameters, for example, installed power, vessel volume and freezing rate are taken to be its related variables. Economic criteria in terms of Net Present Value, Net Present Value Index, Internal Rate of Return and Pay Back Period are calculated on the basis of the relations found from these regressions. These economic results are compared and discussed with a sensibility analysis of the most important variables involved.
