She's the biggest in the world and has just passed Land's End.

The huge Dutch freezer trawler Annelies Anika spotted on the AIS as she passes down the Longships lighthouse on her way to Beverwijk, Holland. She is the world's biggest factory ship. She was of course built originally as SO914, the Atlantic Dawn for Kevin McHugh to replace the Veronica. Although based at Killybegs she was built to fish anywhere in the world.
