Arctic Corsair, Museum ship in Kingston upon Hull, England.
The Arctic Corsair, measuring 57 meters in length, features a riveted hull designed for navigating through extreme North Atlantic conditions.
Built in 1960 by Cook, Welton & Gemmell in Beverley, this sidewinder trawler set a world record in 1973 for the largest cod catch from the White Sea.
Former crew members now serve as tour guides, sharing first-hand experiences of life at sea during Hull's commercial fishing operations.
The vessel remains closed for restoration at William Wright Dock until autumn 2025 as part of the Hull Maritime City project.
During the 1976 Cod Wars, this trawler collided with the Icelandic patrol vessel Odinn, leading to repairs by the Royal Navy.
