Pelagic ships.,Iceland, and The Faroe Islands- 2026.List nr.1

List number 1

Total catch 78 thousand tons, Faroe Islands 42 thousand tons and Iceland 36 thousand tons

It's time to start the list of pelagic vessels

and as in recent years, this list is keeping track of the vessels from Iceland and the vessels from the Faroe Islands

It's going to be a pretty fun year for this group of vessels because now capelin fishing in Iceland

a quota of 197 thousand tons was issued, and Iceland will get 150 thousand tons.

In fact, capelin has arrived because the Polar Amaroq from Greenland

landed the first capelin, and brought 339 tons of capelin to Neskaupstaður in Iceland.

On the other hand, there are three ships from the Faroe Islands that start this first list in the top three places

and Götunes starts first with almost 7 thousand tons of catch

Svanur RE starts first among the Icelandic ships, having landed 3712 tons in the 2 trips

and is currently the vessel with the highest catch in blue whiting fishing.
