A key feature, especially for crew comfort, are the
Stark designed stabilising fins that are a feature on all
Stark vessels. These fins may be folded away when not in
use or alongside, and once deployed, they remove most
of the roll in moderate sea states, meaning that the crew
can work longer and in greater safety around machinery,
or when they are packing fish away down below.
Legacy is the latest evolution from Stark Bros designs
for a strong, reliable, ecofriendly fishing vessel. She'll be
up for sale eventually, as Cameron's fingers itch over his
drawing board, and in the mean time? Ocean Fisheries
are very happy with the achieved in catch rates and
associated fuel consumption costs that she's achieved

Ensuring a successful coating system and providing
long term corrosion protection begins at the interface of
the primer and new plate. This began with the correct
pre-treatment and application of the new building
plate with Interplate 317. Interplate 317 is a high
performance, prefabrication weldable zinc ethyl silicate
primer which maximises workability and productivity,
to maintain the build process. Post construction internals
were protected with the application of Intershield
300, high performance pure epoxy abrasion resistant
anticorrosive system.
Above the water, external steel plates are coated with
Interzinc 52, a high ratio epoxy zinc primer, then overcoated with Intershield 300.
The above water finish system utilised Intergard 263
epoxy tie coat to the anticorrosive system prior to the
application of Interthane 990, a recoatable polyurethane
gloss finish. The hull below water is anti-fouled with
Interclean 175, a long life, traditional, high strength,
controlled depletion polymer for fouling protection.
Deck surfaces are coated with Interbond 501, a high
solids hard wearing epoxy deck finish directly applied
over Intershield 300.
The foc's'le accommodation has four bunks with
stowage for a kit bag each. While the vessel usually
accommodates one skipper and two crew, this leaves
an extra bunk for a trainee or an observer as may be
required on occasions. From a safety at sea and survival
aspect, when all else fails and in the unlikely event of
an accident, the crew have a RFD Pacific four-person
