Croatia-based shipbuilder Uljanik has recently delivered the stern trawler 'Mirakh' for service in far northern fishing grounds.
Construction was completed at the end of November 2014, with the vessel departing to Norway for fishing equipment fit-out and sea trials.
Designed for bottom and pelagic trawling, the vessel was engineered by Norwegian company Cramaco and tailored to Croatian shipbuilding standards. The vessel also features considerable on board fish processing, freezing, storage, preserving and transportation capabilities and has an endurance of 30 days.
The refrigerated cargo hold capacity exceeds 1,400m3, and the trawler's hull sections were treated with zinc oxides at a high temperature in a specially constructed workshop to ensure corrosion protection.
The vessel measures 63.85 metres in length, with a width of 13.5 metres and a speed of 14.5 knots.
