TS601 Assailant 19.98m Trawl Package


FV Assailant - Upgraded Commercial Fishing Vessel | Fully Equipped & Ready to Work

If you're looking for a tough, proven commercial fishing vessel with major upgrades already completed, FV Assailant delivers a reliable, fully equipped platform ready to fish immediately. With extensive recent works and a strong maintenance history, this is a vessel built for operators who value performance, efficiency, and minimal downtime.

Assailant is offered with a Queensland Primary Commercial Fishing Licence (PCFL) and T1 symbol, providing immediate access to key trawl fisheries. Effort units are available for purchase or lease by negotiation, allowing you to scale the operation to suit your requirements.

The vessel has undergone significant upgrades across mechanical, electrical, and operational systems. A rebuilt main engine provides confidence in performance, supported by a new 4BT auxiliary engine with independent exhaust. Electrical systems have been modernised with a new main switchboard and certified vessel wiring, along with updated computers and battery chargers.

Fishing capability and deck efficiency have been enhanced with the installation of new tray flumes, grader, and grading tables, while key machinery has been overhauled, including a rebuilt try winch gearbox with new motor and a rebuilt capstan gearbox. Additional upgrades such as twin Racor filters on the main engine, a reconditioned fridge compressor, and a rebuilt bilge pump further reinforce reliability.

Crew comfort and usability have also been addressed, with air conditioning added to the foc'sle, along with improvements to engine room ventilation and steering systems through replacement fans and steering rams.

This matters because vessels with this level of recent upgrade and system renewal significantly reduce risk, maintenance costs, and downtime--allowing you to focus on fishing and productivity from day one.

FV Assailant is a fully upgraded commercial fishing vessel with PCFL and T1 licence, modernised systems, and extensive recent works, offering a dependable, ready-to-operate solution for commercial fishing.
