New Horizon: Lobster Fishing Vessel
Just shy of 20m New Horizon was launched in 1999 as a dedicated lobster fishing vessel. She has since worked in the offshore industry, however her main purpose has always remained as a fishing vessel. In 2014 an extra 1.5m was added to the hull allowing for an extra 40 baskets to be added, bringing her total capacity of live crayfish up to 118 baskets.
