Not yet at work, but ordered:
The Australian longliner “Austral Odyssey” was launched today at the hull shipyard in Poland. At the end of April, the towing to Måløy will begin, for outfitting and completion at (Båtbygg AS | Raudeberg ):
Austral Odyssey was ordered in 2023:
The latest newbuilding contract for the Raudeberg shipyard Båtbygg is for Australian Austral Fisheries. According to Finansavisen, the total price of the completed contract is expected to be around 400 million kroner, although this has not been confirmed.
Fourth mission
This is not the first time the large Australian longline shipping company has looked towards Norway and Vågsøy.
The last time Båtbygg completed a vessel for Austral Fisheries, the municipality was called Vågsøy, and the vessel was called “Cape Arkona”;
Now the 68.55 meter long and 14.6 meter wide “Austral Odyssey” will be completed at the same shipyard in Kinn municipality. The cargo capacity will be 700 tons, in addition to a crew of 33.
– They operate between eight and ten days from the base, and have been very satisfied with the vessel we delivered previously.

PS> One big difference between the two vessel are that the Austral Odyssey do not have a side hatch through which to pull in the loglines.

He and the crew were greeted with Norwegian flags when they arrived at the company’s quay in Breivika on Monday morning. Henning Veibust himself helped sail the boat over from the shipyard in Skagen in Denmark. Veibust has lived here more or less permanently since last summer.
The 75-meter-long “Havfisk” is a combined purse seiner and bluefin trawler.
If that was meant as a comment to the above it doesn’t work very well.
She will target herring and mackerel with her sein net and blue whiting with mid-water trawl. If any of her gear touch bottom it is an expensive accident.
Here she is seen on her way into Ålesund:

PS> I do agree that bottom trawling, especially scallop scraping, cause extensive damage to the seabed and the life forms that inhabits it.
The fisheries that the “Havfisk” and her sister ships will participate in (in the North Atlantic, North Sea, Norwegian Sea and Barents Sea) are well regulated and controlled.
Quotas for various species are recommended by Marine Biologist and agreed between fishery authorities from EU, UK and Norway annually.
