NEW LIVE FISH CARRIER FROM TURKISH SHIPYARD

New live fish carrier from Turkish shipyard. Developed by the Norwegian SALT Ship Design, the new live fish carrier for wellboat company Seistar is equipped with circular fish tanks. 69.9 m long vessel is built according to the DNV GL class rules and  carries the Norwegian flag.

The successful collaboration between Salt Ship Design and Cemre Shipyard of Turkey has been strengthened with this new project.

The new vessel supplies new and existing customers with new tonnage to cover the increasing demand for treatment- and transport services, especially related to the post-smolts in Western Norway.

The innovative boat design is based on gentle and efficient fish handling in combination with a strong focus on hygiene, environment, and quality. The vessel has several new and exciting design solutions including batteries as energy storage and circular fish tanks. NB76 is designed to keep energy usage at the minimum level.

This Seistar project, which includes solutions that will make a difference, sets an example for live fish carrier vessels to be built in the future.
