Hannes.

Arrived at Brest from Lisboa, on May 30th 1988, towed by FAIRPLAY 14. It was part of a project of salmons farm, based in Morlaix Bay (Brittany). http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2972776
The project wasn't really a success as she was towed on summer 1989 at Saint-Nazaire to be converted in floating storage unit.

This ship was never built in Saint-Nazaire.
Deck super structure added during her stay saw on "this ship" but hull

Constructed in Saint Nazaire to be a salmon floating farm.

Here's an old report from 2005, she used to produce livestock feed back then. Google translate does quite a good job on the French text...
