Nuuk on the south west coast of Greenland is the home port for the 70 metre Arctic shrimp trawler 'Regina C,' an imposing delivery from the Orskov Christensen shipyardin Denmark. Designed by Skipsteknisk and built in steel to Det Norske Veritas +1A1, ICE B, Stern Trawler, EO classification, it comes from a yard with a long history of delivering outstanding vessels. Founded in 1958 by Arne Orskov Christensen, it was the first Danish shipbuilder to construct fishing vessels from steel. Since the company's formation more than 200 craft of all types have been delivered to owners all over the world. Construction is carried out in a building berth measuring 180 metres by 28 metres, and there are two dry docks, two floating docks and a surfacing/finishing workshop with an automatically controlled climate. The expertise and experience of the Orskov Christensen organisation is reflected in every facet of the stern trawler's construction. 'Regina C' is an impressive vessel as is to be expected from the Skipsteknisk design office.
