Particular attention should be paid to the technological solutions implemented in this vessel. The ship is equipped with two Bergen Engines B33:45L6P main engines, a Brunvoll Volda propulsion system, and Nogva/Scania auxiliary generators with a capacity of 2 x 600 kW. Manoeuvrability is ensured by a Brunvoll bow thruster with a power of 1400 kW and an azimuth thruster from the same manufacturer with a power of 1470 kW. The vessel's refrigerated seawater (RSW) tanks, with a capacity of 2700 m³, and the PTG Frio Nordica system (3 x 1100 kW) guarantee effective and environmentally friendly storage of the catch.
Karstensen Shipyard Poland, located in Gdańsk, regularly fulfils orders for Scandinavian clients, delivering top-class vessels and promoting sustainable solutions in the maritime industry. Each of the launched ships, including this newly built trawler, represents a blend of tradition and innovation, earning recognition from international clients.
The new trawler impresses not only with its size and advanced technical parameters but also underscores the importance of the Polish shipbuilding industry. Although it is a Danish shipyard, its operations in Gdańsk demonstrate that Poland plays a significant role in the global market for this industry.
The launch of this vessel proves that Gdańsk remains one of the key centers of the maritime industry in Europe, with significant potential for development and innovation.
