Seaview is available through QFB as a refitted commercial fishing vessel offered with a NSW Ocean Trawl Fishery package, creating a complete acquisition opportunity for commercial fishing operators. The package includes the vessel, a NSW Fishing Business, inshore and offshore shares, species-specific shareholdings and Ocean Trawl Effort Quota. Enquire with QFB to obtain further information or arrange an inspection.
Refitted Commercial Fishing Vessel
Seaview underwent a major refit in 2022, including epoxy sheathing to improve long-term durability and vessel integrity. The vessel has also successfully completed both in-water and out-of-water survey requirements, including shaft inspection completed in July 2025.
The completed refit provides buyers with a vessel that has benefited from significant structural and mechanical investment, reducing the need for immediate major refurbishment.
NSW Ocean Trawl Fishery Package
Included in the sale is a NSW Fishing Business comprising 50 Ocean Trawl Inshore Shares and 50 Ocean Trawl Offshore Shares, providing access across multiple sectors of the NSW Ocean Trawl Fishery.
The package also includes Bluespotted Flathead Shares, Whiting Shares and 8,069 Ocean Trawl Effort (OT) Quota. Species-specific shareholdings provide the associated quota allocations for the 2024 fishing season as supplied by the vendor.
Complete Commercial Fishing Opportunity
The combination of a refitted commercial fishing vessel with an established NSW Fishing Business, shareholdings and effort quota provides an opportunity for operators seeking both vessel capability and fishery access within a single transaction.
With vessel upgrades already completed and fishing entitlements included, Seaview presents a practical package for buyers looking to acquire commercial fishing assets together rather than sourcing them separately.
