Nice shot... :-)
This trawler was earlier for many years named "Nanoq Trawl"...Nanoq is the greenland word for icebear, which still can be seen as a small figure in her stem.
When she was Nanoq Trawl some of the crewmembers came from Hirtshals, so they were probably known with the harbour and how to enter the harbour in bad weather..

Yes, first I even thought the vessel's name is NANOQ TRAWL, because this name is still readable aft - right under the new name which is very difficult to read because it's faded. But thanks to the internet I foond the current name.
