Hi Stan, The details for OPPORTUNE don't match, if you check her IMO number its 7816056 not 9171785.

OPPORTUNE Ex BOY ANDREW.
Built Campeltown Shipyard in 1979.
Dim:- 85 x 24 x 12 feet.
201 Gross. 60.3 Net.
Seiner/ Trawler.
Callesen Engine of 649 hp.
Owner in 2004 was Bremmer Fishing Co of Wick.
Equasis has the next change in November 2019 to M. Hartley Ltd. Scotby, Carlisle. (Well its shown as Hartley M Limited but assume its, as I have put it)

Must say she is looking very smart in her new roll.

Yes, I see her IMO number is now 7816056. Perhaps it was changed when she became a Guard vessel? The number is plain to see on the bridge.
