The fishing boat shown below is typical of those found on low tech planets with useful sealife. While a crew of six would be normal for this vessel, up to six additional crew members could be carried by 'hot berthing' (allowing use of each bunk by a crew member for only 12 hours out of 24), an uncomfortable and unpopular practice. At higher tech levels, a small auxiliary motor for harbor navigation is usually added.
