The DR Maritime Assets GV Defiant, in Lowestoft Harbour today.

Not seen this one here before and it's an unusual looking ship.

  • Listed as Audacious (IMO: 8810152) is a Trawler that was built in 1989
    • I’m guessing with the demise of the fishing industry in the UK, there must be quite a lot of serviceable trawlers still around to convert. By design they’re quite sturdy vessels, good that some can be repurposed.
  • Just been on DR Maritime Assets website and this vessel and others like it they own are converted fishing boats done in Kilkeel Northern Ireland. Interestingly they don’t seem to show up on shipfinder when I looked. ( well this one didn’t, even after it had left port ! ) They are involved in security and guarding duties so this may be why.
  • Hi Howard, yes it’s certainly eye catching as well ! I’m wondering if it’s either a converted trawler or based on a similar design ?
  • Interesting design Mr F
