Vessel Description

The LANDORA is a large ocean-going tuna purse seiner operating under the French flag and managed by Compagnie Française du Thon Océanique (CFTO), one of France's principal distant-water tuna fishing companies headquartered in Concarneau, Brittany. Built in 1994, the vessel is designed for extended deep-sea fishing operations targeting tropical tuna species, primarily skipjack, yellowfin, and bigeye tuna in the Atlantic Ocean. As a purse seiner, she deploys large encircling nets to harvest pelagic tuna schools. The vessel operates under European Union fishing licenses and is subject to regional fisheries management organization (RFMO) regulations, specifically those of ICCAT governing Atlantic tuna stocks. Concarneau serves as her operational home port, a historically significant center of the French tuna fishing industry.
