The Venus, which suffered an accident, is a ship that plays a main role in the six-ship fishing fleet.
The most sailors ride because it plays a key role in rounding the net and trapping the meat.
The Coast Guard believes that the accident ship fell in the direction of the net while the next carrier was coming in after carrying the fish trapped in the net once.

It is a difficult accident to see in the fishing industry, and the Coast Guard believes that the ship failed to beat the weight of the catch in the net.
A similar situation can be estimated from surviving crew statements.

There is also a possibility that the ship, which could not withstand the weight, has greatly lost its hull resilience due to the influence of waves from the carrier.

The vessel itself showed no problems in recent inspections.
It was found that there were no special abnormalities in the interim inspection in June and the regular inspection last year, and there were no problems with the operation of the life raft.
The Coast Guard plans to analyze the crew's statements, the situation at the time, and the condition of the hull to find out the cause of the accident.
