This Dredge was built in 1935, a large part of the hull was replaced in 2006 and the sides of the cargo hold were replaced in 2007, (heavy duty 12 mm (0.47 inch) steel plate). The vessel has been in the harbour since September 2011 and therefore out of classification. Classification has not been renewed since 2012.
