Thanks, Ian.  But any IMO or current name of her or is she already broken up?  As TOR VIKING I have only modern AHTS/icebreaker.

The above info is for the new "Tor Viking".

The old one in the film is IMO 7407063, built 1975, renamed "Red Penguin I" in 1989, "Seabulk Penguin I" in 1998 and has sailed as "Butler Penguin I" since 2008. She is now owned by Butler AG Ltd.
