The first serial freezer trawler-processor "Kapitan Geller" of project 170701 has successfully passed sea trials in the Baltic Sea. Specialists checked the operability of key elements of equipment and main systems.
The ship's trials began on November 27 and lasted five days.
"Kapitan Geller" became the first vessel in the series of project 170701 after the lead trawler "Kapitan Sokolov", which was handed over to the customer this year. These vessels are designed for catching cod, haddock, pollock, herring and other types of fish.
