New fishing boat contract for Evotec

February 16, 2024

"We want to fish for the future and take care of the resources we have in the best possible way. Then we must think new and build new," says Paul HaraldLeinebø. Particular focus has been on utilizing all the energy produced onboard, and the choice fell on Evotec, since the boat features electric deck equipment and winches.

 

Evotec's solutions have exactly the technology that is both future-oriented and sustainable, which we have and which suits us at Leinebris, Paul Harald Leinebø. Evotec is sustainable through reduced energy consumption, reduced weight, and energy regeneration, delivering the market's most space- and weight-saving electric winch and handling equipment!

 

"Our compact, low-weight solutions are essential for Leinebris, which will combine different fishing gear. After a thorough process, it's gratifying that Leinebris chose us as a supplier, a Norwegian local supplier. Our commitment within fisheries has hit the market well; we now have 5 vessels in operation and 12 in production," says Håkon Woldsund, sales manager for Fisheries at Evotec AS.
