Fleet

Our fleet consists of three vessels, which mainly are catching saithe, cod, haddock, redfish and shrimp. The fishing gears mainly used by our vessels are single-and double rigged bottom trawl, pelagic trawl, semi-pelagic trawl and Danish seine.

Nordstar

Built in 1969, the “Grand Old Lady” of the fishingfleet. The vessel has had the same name since it was built, but only the name and the hull remain from the 1969. The most important components (mechanical and electric) has been changed and renewed. The crew of approximately 24, including 3 apprentices. Mainly produces headed and gutted whitefish, round Silver Smelt, J-cutted redfish, and prawn. All fresh frozen onboard.

Nordstar is the first oceangoing fishing vessel which takes care of all the by-products from the production, such as heads and gut. This is done by making the by-products into silage.
This product is processed and used for fishoil and proteinconsentrate, and is then later used as an ingredient in feed for salmon.

The vessel is rigged for single-and double rigged bottom trawl, pelagic trawl and semi-pelagic trawl.
