The new 28-foot boat which was launched on 28 October 1954, the first completed under UNKRA's loan program. The 13-ton vessel is one of 14 improved Eastern-type boats for whose construction loans have been granted. Another nine, designed after European power and sail type boats, are under construction with UNKRA funds. This owner was loaned HW 1,118,000 (about $4,000), which enabled him to buy 7,200 BF of lumber and a locally-produced power unit.
