Electric-powered fishing vessel roadshow
Hans Unkles, who fitted out his fully electric-powered Cygnus 21 Lorna Jane, which he operates out of the small West Highland port of Tayvallich, has received support from The Fishmonger’s Company that will allow him to share his experiences with working fishermen around the UK coastline. As the first vessel of its kind in the UK, the project generated a huge amount of work for Hans when dealing with funders, suppliers and in particular the MCA, which had little previous experience with electric fishing boats and, in Hans’ words, ‘often didn’t quite know how to deal with queries I had’. Hans has several dates and venues agreed, but is available to add presentations, and is more than happy to be contacted by fishermen or associations wanting him to visit their port. more, >>CLICK TO READ<< 08:35
