GRAB DREDGER NO1

Ship No 485


Was an order for the Commissioners for Port of Calcutta. The order was for a Grab Hopper Dredger imaginatively called No 1.

She was 1309 tons, with a length between perpendiculars of 210 feet, with a beam of 45 feet, and a design draught of 17 feet and 9 inches, so she was a fair sized vessel.

She was launched on 13th of December 1963.
