It is operating and ready to be taken over by a buyer as a purse seiner or owner will sell without the seine set up & sonar. Price as a working set up $625,000 + GST or boat without the seine gear for $380,000 but including the deck crane. Vessel has multiple applications for wild fisheries or in aquaculture. Owner selling due to change in fishing operations.
