NORTH CAROLINA STATE LIBRARY RALEIGH N. & Doc UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA MAR 2 8 December, 1977 105 1911 Building NCSU, Raleigh, 27607 Tel: (919) 737-2m. Sea Grant advisory services A little help from your friends Last spring Richard Kepley of Carolina Beach ran into some trouble. Kepley had just gotten his com- mercial fishing operation, Seafood Farms Inter- national, underway. His first boat, the 72-foot Theodora, had been completed and was already fishing. But, saddled with a green captain and crew and inadequate rigging, she was having trouble. Kepley went to Sea Grant's advisory agent in the Wilmington area, Jim Bahen, for help. Bahen turned to the network of Sea Grant advisory agents across the state and nation. Before long, he had Kepley's operation fixed up with an experienced stern trawling captain and more functional rigging. Bahen is one of Sea Grant's 14-member advisory team. As a fisheries agent, his main job is to work with commercial fishermen. But the team also in- cludes people who are experts in the fields of seafood technology and marketing, eel farming, coastal recreation and land use. Like Bahen, they are dedicated to improving the quality of life on North Carolina's coast. They do that by finding out what the coastal public needs and what they can do to help. Often that means putting coastal residents in touch with Sea Grant researchers who are studying a par- ticular problem. For instance, Sea Grant advisory (See "Advisory services," page 2).
