Not only was the boat the highest catch net boat in March, but it was the highest catch

of all boats and even trawlers in March, because Páll Pálsson ÍS who was the highest of the trawlers had about 900 tons of catch in March.

On board Bárður SH there is only one crew, and there are 9 people on the boat at any given time, but this is divided up so that

three are on vacation at any given time, and the system rolls like this

as Pétur Pétursson captain of Bárður SH said in a short conversation "This ends well" yes it is safe to say that March ended well for the

crew on Bárður SH
