New UK Built Netter due for Completion April’21

As part of the modernisation of the Waterdance fleet – and our continued investment in the UK fishing industry - we have contracted Whitby-based Parkol Marine Engineering to build a new 20-metre Netter. Scheduled for completion by April 2021, build no. 051 will become the Amanda of Ladram, skippered by John Walsh.

The first new offshore Netter to be built for the UK flag in almost twenty years, this new vessel represents another major milestone for the Waterdance fleet, following the building of a new Crabber, the Nichola of Ladram, in 2019, and a new Beam Trawler, the Georgina of Ladram, in 2020.
