Abstract
Trials with indigenous aluminium-magnesium alloy as a substitute
for copper in sheathing wooden hulls of mechanized fishing boats
have given promising results. Costing only a little over one third as
copper, the alloy sheathing has been giving satisfactory service for
over 18 months since the boat was commissioned for regular seafishing
operations off Cochin.
