I spotted this impressive and unusual looking ship in Reykjavik harbour today. I've no idea what it is called or its type, maybe a fish head knows what it is. I thought it a little out of the ordinary. Now I wonder if there is a kit of it?[ATTACH]270889[/ATTACH]

We used to call any stern working vessel like that a 'flat back', but I think you're after a more accurate answer than that.
