A year on from the launch of Interfish beam trawler Admiral Gordon at Parkol Marine Engineering’s facility in Middlesbrough, the yard has launched sister vessel Admiral Blake PH-440 for the same customer.
The yard’s newbuild no 60, Admiral Blake was wheeled out of the fabrication shed and craned into the Tees.
It has yet to undergo completion and commissioning at the Middlesbrough yard before heading to Whitby for sea trials and delivery to its owners, after which it is expected to be steamed home to Plymouth.
An SC MacAllister design, Admiral Blake has a 27.30-metre overall length.
Sister vessel Admiral Gordon was delivered last year and was the first beam trawler over 20 metres in length to be delivered by a UK yard for more than thirty years.
