Coia's factory has launched the hull of the second AHTS from the Dutch company Heerema in order to empty slipways to build the first tuna fishing boats for Mexico. The vessel, named Kolga, is 78 meters long.
Kolga is the second unit of a series of two vessels (the first one was named Bylgia) awarded to the shipyard from Vigo in October of 2011.
