Powered: diesel-electric by 4 Yanmar 6EY 18 LAW diesel each 550 kW. Which power two 695 kW Indar ACP-400S/G electric propulsion motors, speed?
For not to disturb and attract whales her power plant was designed so that she is running extremely quietly.

26 May 2017 she arrived for the first time in Port Stanley.
She was the first Falkland Island vessel built and financed wholly with local capital supplied by the Falkland Islands.
Built as a longliner for the Patagonian toothfish fishery, Falkland Island has currently a quota of 1,040 ton, which the owner of CLF HUNTER is allowed to catch. The toothfish is also depicted on the stamp.
The CFL HUNTER can fish down to a depth of 1,000 meters. She will fish for three months with a port call for fuel and provision after six weeks. Her fishing area is southern, south-eastern, and northern of the EEZ.
