      The boat was in USA but I think he was from your area I'm sure. She held 14 truck loads he raised the fish holes 3 ft and would come in 2ft of water in the middle of her . She fed all the sardine factories in Maine and 1 in nb. Canada . 30 years ago.

    I love it brigs back the memories of the 86 footer I worked on in the 70's in Alaska that was 60 years old at the time. It was used as a salmon tender in the summer and King crab in the fall and winter.

    as with a lot of other misty eyed boat lovers the first thing you must do is have a bottom survey, and go from there, I have seen lots of boat purchases get fully fitted out to liveaboard only to find that the bottom was paper thin and they have no money left. boat on the hard and measure plate thickness and do the anodes.

      I remember Radio Cariline and a coupla others when they first started on the 3 mile limit.
      Hey Plopsa... Look at that bow. Too fine for any fishing boat I ever saw. They usually more bluff for lift and carying capacity. She built for going to and surveying, at faster speeds, without load.

    @alexandermarken7639 2 года назад +3

    It would be interesting to see her turned into an economical expidition boat. The Engine is awesome but could be replaced with a Combined Diesel Electric system. Cover the roof and the like with solar panels. Equip her with a modern Sail or kite system for further economy. Strip interior completely and turn into luxury accomodation and galley. etc. With a 5,000 nm range pushed further by the use of wind and solar power maybe a 7,000 nm range would be the result. I would want two engines as a minimum but if you have 12 hours of solar power in batteries and power goes you have time to fix the fault etc. If you have a secondary generator you may be able to limp it home etc. As said it would be an incredible boat to fix up.

      A little less than a years use on the engine., 333 days. We typically put around 7000 hours a year on the mains on the fishing boat I engineer on. Not buying the icebreaker claim. Possibly ice classed , but the scantlings look pretty light for that. Still a interesting old boat. And if it was a fisheries patrol vessel probably lightly used.

    Just a few years to soon to come up for sale because I am going to be looking for a ship like this for a fishing guide operation in Alaska.

      @@YachtBuoy I have worked my only job as a fishing & Hunting guide since 1976.
      I have worked from the Arctic to SE Alaska.
      I have so many fishing locations in Alaska that only are visited by float planes but by the mouth of the rivers at the ocean at Hight tides ships like is for sale can slip into the bays, off load the fishing jet boats with a crane from the deck of the ship and give clients a real remote salmon - trout fishing adventure where they have the river to them self or with the bears - moose - Caribou.
      One more advantage to operations by the ship is many lands in Alaska have been given to Native groups so to go past the High water make isn't allowed so camps can't be set up.
      By the ship guide operations under US law NO one owns the water or the fish.
      Some natives who might get pissed off too bad they don't own the water or the fish.
      As long as the clients stay in the river jet boats all is legal.
      To get clients to the ship many of the bigger bays have fishery's where aircraft land so using a jet boat from land to ship getting clients picked up isn't a problem.
      Also, in small river bays the ship is parker deliberately in where a fish cop would need to land a float plane, so you keep the evil corrupt bastard cops from bothering you and the clients by parking the ship in the planes only landing zone.

    Very cool old boat. Probably going to be captain/owner vessel at just 30m. I would put a new CAT in her, turn it into a 3 cabin configuration and open the wheel house up to a single large space. Lots of old equipment to get rid of when updating. But would be very nice with large cabins, nice new deck and crane for a new 8m tender. Probably 2 mill, but would be very nice. 👍

    Christ on a bike that is quite a vessel! I'd be torn between keeping her as true to her build as possible...or transforming her into something luxurious. The windows in the pilothouse would be a defining feature...no matter how swish she was with the latest technology the windows would be like looking out of a stinky north sea trawler...by the time you'd upgraded her you could have bought a brand new super comfortable trawler yacht made in 2023. Amazing to see this boat though.

Get a new engine so that its more efficient. See if the original Danish builders are still in business and let the pick a new engine and do the upgrades. That way the technical upgrades are done by original ship builder's. For luxury cabin upgrades it could be sent to the appropriate interior builder within Denmark. Though I would keep the cabin layout. Just upgrade it will 2022 comfort's, same for the bath/toilet's etc...

    Ice breaker? That forward locker did not look like an ice rated hull. Icebreakers usually have a rounded bow to ride up over the ice and the weight of the ship cracks the ice. While filming with a mobile phone the fine detail of the rust in the ceiling was difficult to make out. An upgrade to a movie camera with a wider angle lens is really necessary. With structural modifications/rust removal/painting and a new more economical/lighter/more powerful engine, rewiring, re plumbing, new deck and floors, nav equipment/satellite communications, surely the refit would be well over $500,000.

    Only 8000hrs? That translates to 20minutes per day. The same time I spend on the toilet...
    Imagine 10 or 15 retired 60 something year olds buying this as a nostalgic retirement place...
    Cruising the 7 seas, arguing about Chevy and Ford all the way😂
    At least she will be kept as close as possible to her current state.

    Buyer beware. You need one million pounds walking around money to get this ship up to scratch. And stay married.

    Would you, or anyone you know, be willing to invest the kind of money needed to refit this boat into a fresh example, with modern machinery and, well, everything else needed to make it a reliable and comfortable cruiser? This boat is in it's current condition, with everything in and about it, being very old is for good reasons. If you find this hull and machinery to be adequate in it's current condition, and you plan to use it exactly as it is, I suppose 50K might make sense for you to use it for as many years until the first major expense is needed. Yes, I think this old girl has reached the end of the line, perhaps not immediately, bur certainly in the near future.
