THE ULTIMATE & COMPLETE TREATMENT FOR VIBRATION & NOISE Astilleros Gonddn Delivers Stern Trawler Amaltal Mariner Astilleros Gondan, a member of Spanish private shipyard group onstrunaves located on Spain's northwest coast, has delivered Amaltal Mariner, a 121.4-ft. (37-m) stern trawler fitted out for all types of bottom nd mid-water trawling. As of September, this ship will fish hoki and ther species in New Zealand grounds. Richard Tregidga, skipper of Almatal Columbia, said, "The Mariner nil be the most modern wet fish trawler in New Zealand." Mr. .Vegidga will be the vessel's captain for the 42-day delivery trip from ^.sturias, Spain, to its homeport of Nelson, New Zealand. Amaltal Mariner is a modern steel hulled vessel with an aluminum vheelhouse, and is equipped to fish in waters as deep as 4,921 ft. (1,500 n), with bottom trawl for orange roughy. Mid-water gear will be used for loki, alphonsino and blue nose fishing. The ship is powered by a MAN B&W Alpha 6L 28/32 diesel engine developing 2,000 hp at 775 rpm, a reduction gear fitted with a 600 kVA PTO, and is equipped with an alphatronic remote control and monitor- ing system. Through the reduction gear PTO, the main engine drives a 600 kVA, 380 V, 50 Hz alternator. A 400 kVA at 1,500 rpm genset is also installed. The fishing machinery is hydraulically powered and was supplied by Rapp Hydema. The major elements are: two main trawl winches; four Gilson winches; one codend winch; two outhaul winches; and one net drum. This trawler is fitted with a highly comprehensive array of electronic communications, navigation aids and fishfinding equipment supplied principally by Furuno, Rovertson, Sailor and Simrad. Over its history, Astilleros Gondan has built more than 160 ships. These include merchant ships, tugs, yachts and landing craft. A great part of the production of this yard is focusing on building fishing ships of all types (trawlers, purse seiners, longliners and shrimp ships).
