Answer

What do fishermen in Alcúdia say about the new logbook system?

In Alcúdia, as in other Mallorcan harbours, fishermen are concerned that the system does not fit the rhythm of small coastal fishing. Their complaint is that a rigid digital process can be difficult to manage when catches are uncertain and work changes from one trip to the next. Many want a system that is easier to use and better adapted to local conditions.
