Belgium
The number of Belgian fishing vessels decreased from 120 in 2005 to 107 in 2006, partly by scrapping of vessels and partly by incorporating engine capacity from withdrawn vessels to existing vessels. In 2007, the number of fishing vessels decreased once again to 102 vessels with a total capacity of 60 620 kW (+0.7%) and 19 292 GT (–4%).
