MARK ROBERTSON, SKIPPER OF ZENITH

“In the 34 years I’ve been a fisherman, we’ve never been taught how fisheries are managed, and how science interacts with the fishing. I’ve been waiting a long time for an opportunity like this to come along, and it’ll make a real difference to the next generation of fishermen”.
