Project Story
Nordhavet is a fishing vessel for Nordhavet AS, built at Larsnes Mek. Verksted AS in 2018. The vessel is equipped for Danish seine and purse seine operations and has been developed for a working environment where catch handling, raw material quality, crew and technical systems need to work closely together across changing seasons.
At 43.2 metres long, 9.3 metres wide and with a cargo capacity of 420 m³, the vessel is tailored to its segment of the coastal fishing fleet. The design is not simply about accommodating fishing gear and cargo, but about creating short and safe working lines from catch handling through reception, cooling and storage to unloading.
Nordhavet builds on a modern NC126 concept, with increased length, generous RSW capacity and solutions for handling live fish, purse seine and Danish seine operations.
The deck arrangement, cargo hold, machinery and accommodation have been designed as an integrated whole to create a vessel that is practical to operate. Good visibility, safe access and the correct positioning of equipment are essential when a small crew needs to work efficiently during periods of challenging weather.
Nordhavet demonstrates how a fishing vessel can be adapted to specific fishing gear, local operating patterns and the shipowner's requirements, while maintaining the simplicity that makes the vessel robust in daily operations.

Design focus
01
Capacity
The cargo hold and deck arrangement provide the vessel with capacity for larger catches, with 420 m³ of cargo capacity as a central part of its operational profile.
02
Energy-Efficient Operations
Hull, propulsion and operating profile have been considered as an integrated whole to reduce energy consumption and provide efficient propulsion in daily fishing operations.
03
Flexible Fishing
The design supports Danish seine and purse seine operations, allowing the vessel to be utilised across different seasons and catch profiles.
04
Catch Handling
Reception, RSW/cargo hold and processing areas are organised to maintain catch quality and ensure efficient unloading.
