The Junge Welt and its sister ship Junge Garde were Type II transport and processing vessels used by the GDR deep-sea fisheries. They were used as mother ships for the flotilla fishery of the Rostock fish combine in the North Atlantic .

history

Visit to the Young World

Both ships were built in 1967 at the Mathias Thesen shipyard in Wismar . The Junge Welt was put into service on March 10, 1967 with the fishing license number ROS 316 , that of the Junge Guard on April 21, 1967 with ROS 317 .

On March 8, 1968, the Young Guard had an accident off Labrador . When a trawl was taken over , it got into the drive and made the ship unable to maneuver. It drifted into an ice field, where it passes through ice floes in the area of the engine room sprung a leak was. Due to the water ingress, the power supply on the ship failed. The Junge Welt , who came to the rescue, was unable to get to the damaged vessel because of the ice drift . A leak sail finally succeeded in temporarily closing the leak. The following day the feeder trawler ROS 415 was able to drag the Young Guard into ice-free water. Towed by ROS 413, 415 and 419, the ship reached the port of St. John's on March 17, 1968 .

The Junge Welt was decommissioned in 1992 and demolished in Gadani Beach . The Young Guard was decommissioned on July 28, 1992. It then sailed under the Russian flag as KP-0151 and was canceled in 1998.

technology

The ships were equipped with diesel-electric propulsion . Four diesel engines , each with an output of 1,288 kilowatts, each drove a direct current generator . A direct current propeller motor was driven with the generated electricity. Three of the diesel engines were also coupled to three-phase generators for the on-board power supply.

The type II transport and supply ships were designed as mother ships for eight Artur Becker feeder trawlers. Over a four-meter-wide Heckaufschleppe the transferred from the fishing ships, floatable made Netzsteerte were brought on board what to wind force 8 was possible. Up to 150 tons of fish could be temporarily stored in four refrigerated storage bunkers before they were further processed in the slaughtering, filleting and freezing plants, which were designed for 120 tons of fish per day. A total of 3800 tons of goods frozen at −28 ° C could be stored in the 6050 cubic meter loading space. In a fish meal plant with an output of 250 tons per day offal and bycatch were processed, which were stored in the fish meal bunker with a capacity of 1820 cubic meters (1079 tons). Tanks with a total capacity of 542 cubic meters (500 tons) were available for the fish and liver oil produced on board.
