Oh, S.L. Larkin, and A.W. Hodges. 2012. The Operations and Economics of the For-Hire Fishing Fleets of the South Atlantic States and the Atlantic Coast of Florida. University of Florida, Department of Tourism, Recreation & Sport Management, January 31, 2012, Final Report for Marine Fisheries Initiative (MARFIN) Program Grant Number NA09NMF4330151. This survey collected data to provide a current perspective on the for-hire fishing sectors of Florida (east coast), Georgia, South and North Carolina. One important segment of sportfishing demand is the recreational for-hire fleet, commonly called charter and head boats. A 13-page survey with 62 questions was developed to collect information on for-hire operators background and characteristics, boat description, species information, operating policies, boat operation, business operation characteristics, community ties, and opinions concerning current fisheries regulations. Letters, phone calls and intercepts at marinas were used to contact operators to explain the intent of the survey and encourage participation. Charter and head boat operators were surveyed at their home marina by trained interviewers. Respondents were asked to complete the survey with responses based on the 2009 calendar year. Provide economics research to support fisheries management. completed Liese, Christopher 305-365-1109 305-365-4102 75 Virginia Beach Dr Miami FL 33139 United States Christopher.Liese@noaa.gov 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM EST/EDT pointOfContact Liese, Christopher 305-365-1109 305-365-4102 75 Virginia Beach Dr Miami FL 33139 United States Christopher.Liese@noaa.gov 8:00 AM - 4:30 PM EST/EDT Contact by email preferred. custodian fishery-dependent theme DOC/NOAA/NMFS/SEFSC > Southeast Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
