Abstract :
Let ( 
) be independent random vectors. This paper is concerned with the estimation of 
). This problem arises naturally in comparing the fishing ability of different vessels. In this case ( 
) denote the catch per tow of the two vessels at the site i or time i. Due to the highly skewed nature of the distributions of the catches the difference of the average means would not give a realistic idea of the fishing power of the vessels.
