Hákon praises Thyborøn controllable doors after a year at sea
When Icelandic fishing company Gjögur’s new pelagic vessel Hákon TH-250 was in the planning process, the decision was taken to invest in the latest controllable Thyborøn trawl doors. These were a pair of Type 42 doors, measuring 12 square metres and weighing in at 4,700 kilos – the first of this type for an Icelandic fishing vessel. Twelve months on, there’s a breadth of experience in using these door, and it’s positive in every respect.
