Low-drag Osprey semi-pelagic doors also return outstanding results and are ideal for the fishing patterns of Icelandic groundfish trawlers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis really is a special year for Morg\u00e8re, with a new factory, new products on the way \u2013 and a new director,\u201d Pascal Reverseau said, commenting that joining the business at this time with all the current restrictions has also been a challenge \u2013 but an interesting one.<\/p>\n<p>IceFish is also something of a milestone, as it\u2019ll be his first international fishing industry event since joining Morg\u00e8re.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor months we haven\u2019t been able to meet our customers around the world. So we are delighted that at IceFish we\u2019ll be able to meet our partners and our customers, where we\u2019ll also be able to present new products. Morg\u00e8re has always worked closely with skippers on developing our trawl door designs, and our customers also appreciate that we are always ready to provide advice and technical assistance,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo we are certainly looking forward to IceFish.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in exhibiting, sponsoring, attending or speaking at 2021 IceFish please call +44 01329 825 335 or email <a href=\"mailto:info@icefish.is\">info@icefish.is<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>International sales: Diane Lillo Tel. +44 1329 825 335 or email <a href=\"mailto:dlillo@mercatormedia.com\">dlillo@mercatormedia.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Icelandic sales: \u00d3mar M\u00e1r J\u00f3nsson Tel: +354 893 8164 <a href=\"omar@icefish.is\" target=\"_blank\">omar@icefish.is <\/a>or Bjarni Thor Jonsson GSM: +354 896 6363 <a href=\"mailto:bjarni@icefish.is\">bjarni@icefish.is<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year Morg\u00e8re is leaving the location at the quayside in Saint Malo that it has occupied for a almost a century, and on 1\u00a0September production starts at a new production facility a few kilometres away.
