Fishing Vessel 1980

The F/V NORSKA is a robust 72-foot steel fishing vessel, expertly crafted by Dukes Welding in Crescent City, CA, specifically for the demands of commercial fishing on the West Coast. With a Monk displacement hull featuring a raked bow and hard chines, this vessel is designed to thrive in the challenging waters of the Pacific, boasting the structural durability and storage capacity necessary for intensive fishing operations. Unlike lightweight conversion boats, the NORSKA is a substantial 110 GT steel asset, equipped with the power, hold capacity, and hydraulic systems to support various fisheries, including Dungeness crab, shrimp, and tuna. It can also be easily converted to a trawler setup and is ready for immediate deployment in West Coast waters. Key specifications include a documented hull length of 62.8 feet, a beam of 22 feet, and a depth ranging from 10.2 to 10.6 feet. The vessel features a solid construction with ¼" steel plate for the hull and deck, six watertight bulkheads, and a protective steel pilot house. The fish holds are designed for significant capacity, accommodating up to 80,000 lbs of live crab or iced shrimp, with additional facilities like a built-in bait freezer. The main propulsion system, a Cummins QSK19-MIII engine, delivers 750 HP, ensuring reliable performance for extended offshore trips. The NORSKA is fully outfitted with commercial-grade navigation and electronic systems, crew accommodations for up to five, and a comprehensive suite of fishing gear, making it a turn-key solution for serious fishing operations.
