Hey Pieter

Really enjoying these great shots from Murmansk -hope there more to come! Rokishkis, (Kaspiy type) built 1971 VEB Mathias-Thesen-Werft-Wismar. Originally built as a side trawler and still shown in LR as a fishing vessel however, as Trasgu notes, operating nowadays as a fish carrier/reefer transhipping with Russian trawlers. Last in Lerwick 2003. LR/IMO No 7042332

According to her general design, I would tend to say that [i]Rokishkis[/i] is a former Refrigerated Fish Carrier reformed as a reefer. Operated by Ankran Co(Murmansk - Russia) and launched in 1971, she mids 65.69m long and has been fitted with a 880hp engine.
