FV Silent Victory – 19.77m Length x 6.3m Beam x 3.8m Draft
At just under 20m, the FV Silent Victory is a versatile fish trawl operation with ability to work between State and Commonwealth Fisheries such as the the Southern and Eastern Scalefish and Shark Fishery (SESSF) and the NSW Northern and Southern Ocean Trawl Fisheries.
Purpose built for the Commonwealth South East Trawl Fishery, the FV Silent Victory is fitted with a new Cummins KTA 19-M3 (Approx. 2,500 Hrs) and new exhaust systems fitted to the main engine and the auxiliaries. The vessel has had significant investment from the current Owner since purchase – please enquire for list of recent Vessel upgrades.
The AMSA 2B & 3B Survey for Crew of 6 was completed in late 2025 with the next Out-Of-Water Survey not due until June 2030
The Vessel presents for sale in excellent condition and is a proven platform in the Commonwealth Trawl sector. The Vessel is turn-key and suits a buyer that wants the advantage of purchasing a vessel and start fishing straight away. Other features of the Vessel include 30 Tonne of fish hold capacity and a 3 Tonne / Day flake ice-machine.
A SESSF Trawl Boat SFR is available for lease with the Vessel if required (for separate negotiation).
