Sister Ships Launched

The Fraserburgh pair-seiner ‘Crystal River’ FR 178 was transported to the slipway at low tide using specialist low loader units. With the low loaders removed, 6 hours and a large spring tide later, she was towed to her fitting-out berth to complete the final works.

At the same time, the sister ship ‘Faithful’ FR 129 left Macduff for final trials before heading to Fraserburgh for preparations to go on her maiden trip.

Ian Ellis, Managing Director, MacDuff Ship Design said: We are proud to have provided Naval Architecture services to Macduff Shipyard for these designs and wish the skippers good fishing and safe seas.
