Vessel Description

LA PALOMA II is a French-flagged deep-sea fishing vessel constructed in 1981, operating primarily in the remote sub-Antarctic fishing grounds administered under French Southern and Antarctic Territories jurisdiction. The vessel is associated with longline fishing activity in CCAMLR-regulated waters, targeting high-value species in the Southern Ocean. As a vessel of her era and size class, she represents the category of mid-to-large commercial fishing vessels engaged in licensed, regulated fisheries in some of the world's most remote maritime environments.
