The vessel was a very capable and hardworking Stern Trawler, built at Construcciones Navales Santodomigo in Vigo, Spain, which fished New Zealand waters for around 40 years and in the last 4 years has been operated in Australian waters. Since June 2023 she has been berthed at the Port of Geelong, Australia and appears to be abandoned by the current owner. Under its current ownership, maintenance and repairs appear to have been lacking and different areas of the vessel will now require some substantial attention to bring the vessel back into operational condition.
Please note that various items have been removed from the vessel that would negatively impact the survey and operational status of the vessel, these items include the vessel’s liferafts, rescue boat, radio batteries, port auxiliary generator, the fish processing plant, port bow anchor, trawl boards, net roller, trawl nets, trawl wires and the starboard hydraulic deck crane. The aft work deck area and trawl winches will require investigation to determine their viability but appear to require either substantial works or replacement due to heavy corrosion.
There are different areas of the vessel that appear to be in somewhat reasonable condition, ie, the engineroom, bridge, fish hold and accommodation areas, while the exterior of the vessel would require some fairly extensive investigation and work to bring the vessel back into operational condition, also taking into account the equipment that has been removed from the vessel and that the vessel is nearly 45 years old and also out of survey.
