Ohana: Lobster Fishing Boat
Launched in 2015, Ohana was the first new lobster fishing boat to be built in Geraldton, for a decade. At 23.5 m, the Ohana lobster fishing boat is the largest ever built to date. Ohana set a new standard for the industry, with fuel capacity, carrying capacity and accommodation quality to cater for a variety of situations, including extended overnight stays and rough waters. Ohana has a live tank capacity of 128 baskets, equivalent to 4.5 tonnes of lobster. Built for fuel efficiency rather than speed the vessel is able to reach a top speed of 23 knots at full capacity, and attain a cruising speed of 15-17 knots.
