A Coast Guard boarding team member inspects one of several, large refrigerator storage holds aboard a transshipment vessel, that stores vast quantities of catch until the fish can be brought to market, in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, October 2023. The Coast Guard recently completed the first high-seas boardings and inspections off the coast of Peru under a newly adopted multi-lateral agreement to monitor fishing and transshipment operations within
the South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organization (SPRFMO) Convention Area. (U.S. Coast Guard photo)
