The famous Armement Dhellemmes from Concarneau(Brittany - France) has sold, during the mounth of january, the trawler Izoard to the Franco-Spanish fishing company Concerto-Baccara SARL, that operates two other units previously owned by the former Armement Nicot...
This beautiful fishing vessel of 34m long has been launched in 1981 in Constr.Mec.Normandie(Cherbourg) and was the oldest unit of Dhellemmes'fleet. Remaining under French flag, she would be registered in Bayonne(Pays Basque - France) and would be administered by Pronaval, whose director is Mr Zarza. This would rise to 11 the number of Franco-Spanish fishing vessels(9trawlers/2longliners) based in Ondarroa(Bizkaia, Euskadi - Spain).
Izoard would target all sea ground species, including anglerfish, with a crew of 10 men, all spanish but the skipper who would be french. Her home ports will be Ondarroa and Castletown(Cork - Eire). Her catches would be sold in La Rochelle(Charente-Maritime - France), as far as the most valuable species are concerned(net species, rays, ray-finned fishes), and in Spain for sardines or anglerfish.
