Yanmar Powers Award-Winning Norwegian Hybrid Fishing Vessel
The Ro Vision hybrid live fish carrier.
Yanmar has delivered engines for an innovative hybrid power solution for the live fish carrier, Ro Vision, the winner of Norway’s Boat of the Year Award.
Built by Norwegian shipyard Larsnes Mek.

The ground-breaking vessel was awarded Norway’s prestigious Ship of the Year Award for 2020 for its outstanding technology and design.
With the Norwegian aquaculture and fishing industry setting its sights on the future, new boats are being built with increasing concern for the condition of the live fish, the welfare of the crew and the environment. This first ever hybrid propulsion live fish carrier is developed with a strong focus on increased safety and lower emissions.

Moreover, they are economical, have low emissions and a long lifespan, which is often a decisive factor for our customers, such as ship owners and designers.”
