Jasmine. The First New Beamer for Belgium in 20 Years

The new beamer’s skipper is Diego Vandierendock who, like the owner and other crew members, comes from Knokke-Heist. After the christening, he took Jasmine to the Bristol Channel to go fish for sole, and after a twelve day-day trip the first catch was trucked back to the Oostende auction on 11th June. Built for owner Dany Vlietinck, whose son Jens sails as engineer, Jasmine Z-483 has been built at the Padmos yard in Stellendam to a new design with relatively high bulwarks to maintain the ship’s line and to maintain crew safety. >photos, click to read< 15:23
