VESSEL REVIEW: Australia’s Huon Aquaculture has taken delivery of a new general-purpose workboat built by local company Lyndcraft Boats.

'Ottalauss' was designed by Australia/New Zealand naval architecture firm Oceantech to be capable of supporting Huon’s fish farming operations in southern Tasmania.

The vessel was built for 24-hour operations, in part due to the fact that performing certain routines (such as harvesting) at night would provide a higher level of animal welfare. Abundant deck lighting and adequate deck space meanwhile help facilitate a safe working environment in these conditions, as does a dedicated external helm, which is particularly useful when working in close proximity to pens.
