Inuksuk II is equipped with an advanced onboard factory to process and freeze catches of Greenland halibut and shrimp. With a capacity to store 1,320 tons of frozen-at-sea Greenland halibut or 930 tons of shrimp, it stands as the largest Canadian-owned fishing vessel from coast to coast. The vessel is designed for operations in the North Atlantic and polar regions, including NEAFC, NAFO, and ICES regulatory areas.

Designed by Skipsteknisk of Norway and built under the supervision of DNV Class Society, Inuksuk II can accommodate 38 crew members, offering spacious living quarters and social amenities.

“Inuksuk II is a testament to our shipyard’s capability to deliver state-of-the-art vessels that meet the highest standards of quality and performance. We are honored to have built the largest Canadian-owned fishing vessel, which will significantly enhance the fishing operations in the North Atlantic and polar regions, and we are grateful for the trust and collaboration with Niqitaq Fisheries” says Mehmet Gazioğlu, the Managing Director of Tersan Shipyard.

Niqitaq Fisheries, a subsidiary of Baffin Fisheries Coalition, has been a leading commercial fishing enterprise in Northern Canada since 2001, harvesting over 10,000 tons of Greenland halibut and cold-water shrimp annually. The addition of Inuksuk II will expand their fleet, making her the largest and most advanced in their lineup.

“We appreciate all the hard work from the men and women at the Tersan Shipyard, and look forward to operating this beautiful vessel in a safe and productive manner for decades to come,” said Baffin Fisheries Chair Kelly Kilabuk.

The official delivery of the Inuksuk II has been successfully completed, marking a significant milestone for Tersan Shipyard. This state-of-the-art vessel is now fully prepared and scheduled to embark on her maiden voyage to Canada, where she will soon join the fleet of Niqitaq Fisheries, enhancing their fishing operations in the North Atlantic and polar regions.
