Arrived from Thyboron this morning she is lised on the Harbour website as carrying out a demob.
She is 41 years young, Danish flag and listed as a palletised cargo ship having spent most of March at Thyboron but not detained due to deficiencies

A bit of info on her from shipingnewsclippings 286
Danish JD-Constructor A/S is a provider of subsea services and operates a fleet of various vessels. VINA is an interesting example. Built as the Norwegian palette carrier TRANS VAG she is fitted with a 75 ton heavy lift boom and a 34 ton crane that were later complemented by a 6-point anchoring system and DP, making her a versatile workhorse for the offshore industry. For more details please refer to the excellent webpage www.jdcon.dk.

That explains the JD ref. for ASSISTER. Blyth Harbour website had her name down as JD ASSISTER.
