French Southern and Antarctic Territories used in 1994 one stamp for the “Scientific Management of Fisheries” which shows us a stern trawler of the Atlantik type built in East Germany from 1966 till 1974.
Two types were built, from 1966 till 1968, 50 units of “Atlantik I” from 1968 till 1975 121 units of ‘Atlantik II”.
The Atlantik type was built on the Volkswerft VEB, Stralsund. Then from 1974 till 1976 built the Mathias-Thesen yard in Wismar this type.
Seven of these trawlers were research trawlers, and seven as training vessels.
The first which was built was the ATLANTIK.
