Custom Training Ship
Built in 1954 by reputable Norwegian ship builder Verksted/Arundel, this steel North Sea Ship was brought to Australia and transformed into a training ship used by border security and customs. This ship has been used in exercises and utilized as a floating classroom for government service and also as an Island Trading vessel.
The 3 cylinder Wichmann 2 stroke 300 hp engine is still in excellent condition and is very reliable.
She can carry up to 50 passengers and has a 40 tonne hold and a 10 tonne deck.
The vessel needs ongoing maintenance on deck and is priced accordingly.
