Vessel Description

HARENGUS is a medium-sized Latvian-flagged fishing vessel constructed in 1988 during the Soviet era. The vessel is engaged in commercial fishing operations and is registered under the Latvian flag, operating primarily in Baltic and North Atlantic waters. The name Harengus is derived from Clupea harengus, the scientific name for the Atlantic herring, reflecting the vessel's fishing focus. As a Soviet-era built fishing vessel, she represents a class of mid-sized stern trawlers designed for pelagic and demersal fishing operations in northern European waters.
