This project is a preliminary investigation into the potential for live shipping of blue swimmer crabs by traditional dry packing methods. The project adopted the findings of the WA project ‘how to stop a blue crab feeling blue’ for the onboard handling procedures then investigated different methods of dry packing the live crabs to determine the best packing method and the survival rate at different times post packing.

All trials were conducted using 36 litre polystyrene cartons, each layer of crabs were separated by a moist 5mm piece of foam. Coolant gels were used to maintain a cool temperature within the polystyrene cartons, these were separated from the crabs by a layer of woodwool and a 6mm C flute corrugated board.
