Net cutter (fisheries patrol) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Net cutter (fisheries patrol)
Net cutters, or trawlwire cutters were secret weapons〔Sæmundsson, Sveinn (1984) ''Guðmundur skipherra Kjærnested'', Örn og Örlygur. (), p. 187-189.〕 employed by the Icelandic Coast Guard during the later two Cod Wars to cut the trawling wires of foreign fishing trawlers working within the then newly claimed Exclusive Fisheries zones. They were invented by Commander Pétur Sigurðsson, Director of the Coast Guard, with assistance from Friðrik Teitsson from the Icelandic lighthouse institution and Tómas Sigurðsson, who were both ironmongers. The invention was known as the trawlwire cutter, and was tested in 1958—but not used until 5 September 1972, after every Icelandic ship had been equipped with it. ==The first net cutting== On September 5, 1972, at 10:25〔 ICGV ''Ægir'', under Cdr. Guðmundur Kjærnested's command, encountered an unmarked trawler fishing northeast of Hornbanki. The master of this black-hulled trawler refused to divulge the trawler's name and number, and, after being warned to follow the Coast Guard's orders, played ''Rule, Britannia!'' over the radio. At 10:40 the net cutter was deployed into the water for the first time and ''Ægir'' sailed along the trawler's port side. The fishermen tossed a thick nylon rope into the water as the patrol ship closed in, attempting to disable its propeller. After passing the trawler, ''Ægir'' veered to the trawler's starboard side. The net cutter, behind the patrol vessel, sliced one of the trawling wires. As ICGV ''Ægir'' came about to circle the unidentified trawler, its angry crew threw coal as well as garbage and a large fire axe at the Coast Guard vessel.〔 A considerable amount of swearing and shouting came through the radio, which resulted in the trawler being identified as ''Peter Scott'' (H103).〔
